The best question I have ever heard: "Can you recommend any book for me?"
I am a librarian, and I can hear such question so many times...What can I say? To find a good interesting book which will give you pleasure of reading - it is like to find a good interesting friend that will continue to live in your mind even if you stop to communicate with him or her. It is not so simply. Just imagine you can`t be friends with any person: there are people you love, there are people you hate, and the same situation with any book. So first, you need to decide what do you want to find in a book? Rest? Love? Laugh? Work? Sadness? or maybe other things or emotions, only this way you can start to search a book to read. And I can`t believe that there is a person who doesn`t like to read, I believe that this person haven`t found yet his book.

To find a good interesting book which will give you pleasure of reading - it is like to finding a good interesting friend that will continue to live in your mind even if you stop to communicating with him or her. It is not so simple. Just imagine you can`t be friends with just any person: there are people you love, there are people you hate, and it's the same situation with any books. So first, you need to decide what do you want to find in a book? Rest? Love? Laughs? Work? Sadness? or maybe other things or emotions, only this way you can start to search for a book to read. And I can`t believe that there is a person who doesn`t like to read, I believe that this person hasn`t yet found his book.I love the quote at the end!
Also if you are interested I wrote an article about finding a book (and other tools) for language learning on medium.com , not sure if the article will show up in the link, if not pm me for details!
