Which Book Has Influenced You? by KCeejay125(m): 2:04pm On Jun 23, 2020 |
The lockdown period has given me the opportunity to read books. I have read books on Nigeria history, politics,world,economy and motivational books I read most of these books at my leisure time and enjoyed it. I fell in love with books because of my father. My father had many books, sometimes I wonder if he has read all of them. I naturally developed an appetite for reading, so those days I will read and ask questions. I read fiction books like : Things fall apart Half of a yellow sun Without a silver spoon Chike and the river One good turn deserves another Born to win One week one trouble The potter's wheel Expo “77” Purple hibiscus Women of owu. The arrow of God and many more made my childhood an interesting experience Books give insights to other people's knowledge, experiences and wisdom. Books are life Without books, the world would never have advanced as rapidly as it has done in the last 500 years. My vocabulary has also improved got better because I made reading books a habit. I also like discussing ideas and sharing opinions and asking questions based on issues raised in books I read. Books have changed my life so much that I will never stop read them. If you don't, make a habit of reading, a book a week, or at least a month. Your vocabulary will not only get better but your mindset and knowledge and behaviours will vastly improve. Books have influenced and changed my mindset. So much that I will never stop reading them. What books have influenced you? Share with me in the comment section
