Improving reading I'm traying to improve my reading, i'm not so bad at it but i want to read at the same level as on my first language(spanish). It is not an easy and fast goal but still little by little im going there. So i started reading complete books with Agatha Christie. Yesterday i finished A misterious affair at Styles. This is not a bad book but is not a genre that call too much my attention but still is really interesting. I prefer books which talk about the daylife and culture in another time like Victorian age, so i loved Jane Austen ,Elizabeth Gaskel and George Eliott books when i read them years ago. But i'll trie this time with the murder of roger ackroyd. I read this in spanish months ago and it really surprise my the end. Maeby it is becose i forget that i'm reading a book about a murder and cant remember to pay attention to the clues. Or is becouse she is a brilliant writer and not just me cant figure out who is the murder till the end?

Improving Reading

I'm trying to improve my English reading. I'm not too bad at it but I want to read at the same level as with my first language, Spanish. It is not an easy or fast goal, but still, little by little I'm getting there. I started reading complete books by Agatha Christie.
Yesterday I finished The Mysterious Affair at Styles. This is not a bad book, but it is not a genre that really holds my attention. Still, it is really interesting. I prefer books which talk about daily life and culture in another time, like the Victorian age, so I loved Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell and George Eliot books when I read them years ago.
But I'll try this time with The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I read this in Spanish months ago and it really surprised me at the end. Maybe it was because I forgot that I was reading a book about a murder, and couldn't remember to pay attention to the clues. Or is it because she is a brilliant writer and it's not just me who can't figure out who the murderer is until the end?

Very good Jhan.
