It’s all true! Reading takes time... But
when you study a language, reading is sort of
important. The easiest way to learn to
love to read is reading for pleasure. This is different from the reading you do
for study. When you read for pleasure, you choose the book that you read and you
will not be tested about it. All you have to do is enjoy the book!
