    The things you have said is so true. I'm also a fiction reader and it's been a couple of years since I have started reading and at some point i also started to think that these books are starting to consume too much of my time even though they have helped me to improve my English a lot still I was having second thoughts about it. After watching your video I have realised what you are saying is so true and now i guess I'm not gonna give up on my books.
    Thank you so much for such an amazing video. Not sure why the views and like are so low

    Thank you for this!
    I've been reading nonfiction for quite a while and I can see why I've not been so motivated to implement the tips it was giving me!
    You explained it really well❤

    i think that reading self help and fiction should be balanced after all they both are good in their own perspective

      I do also believe that if you combine them together it will lead to a better understanding, whereas when you limit your reading to only self-help you are gonna lack the deeper understanding that stories give you
      But there's another type of nonfiction that I cherish quite a lot, it's biography books, they're also the same, they contain stories and real examples, not just one liner tips that only affect you temporarily

      Of course, but it's always hard for me to give recommendations cause there are so many good books that I've read and I might not be able to include cause I don't have it specifically documented, which is something I'm gonna change in 2025! Decided to talk about them on my telegram channel, maybe you can follow along if you like! Link in description
      Here's some books that come to mind (there's still some gems I read that I'm def forgetting to mention)
      Some Classics I enjoyed:
      - a tale of two cities
      - crime and punishment
      - Frankenstein
      - the time machine
      - animal Farm
      - a Christmas Carol
      - Fahrenheit 451
      - the old man and the sea by Ernest Hemingway
      - man's search for meaning by Viktor Frank
      Some recent books I've read: (when It comes to more modern works I mostly read sci-fi or biographies)
      - the three-body problem
      - mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson
      - The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul (Douglas Adams)
      - 2001: A Space Odyssey (Arthur C. Clarke)
      - what I talk about when I talk about running by Haruki Murakami
