Other points:

- Any suggestive improvements for the Reading Club discussions?
- Points of discussion you're intrigued by?

- I'm Not Hanging Noodles on Your Ears:
It's interesting how different cultures can be very similar in some expressions, yet very different in others. Some of the idioms in the book were comprehensible to me, while others did not make any sense. Cultural differences are truly fascinating.
The book was enjoyable overall.

- Fluent in 3 Months:
This book argues that the traditional ways of learning languages are inefficient, give a false sense of incompetence, and end up in frustration. In addition, it debunks some of the most common misconceptions about learning new languages. My favourite part was about some helpful tips and tricks to make learning languages less scary and more fun.
I would recommend this book for sure.

- Which book would you have preferred to read in this phase 'Languages'?
An English novel of moderate difficulty would’ve been nice.

- Any suggestive improvements for the Reading Club discussions?
It was hard to find this discussion. Perhaps make it more accessible (e.g. by sharing the link somewhere).
Also, this discussion looks like a questionnaire. Nobody likes questionnaires. A simpler, informal form would be better.

Thank you!

Thank you Ayman,
Your suggestions will be taken gladly into consideration in future posts.

Fluent in 3 Months:
Well I would say it is a rather interesting book, pretty juicy when it comes to personal expertise and life experience. But is it really helpful ?
The book starts off with the writer telling us about the hardship he went through as he began to learn a new languages. He started off by explaining what really matters which is motivation to learn and interact with your newly met world.

Secondly he went on to explain why most people fail in learning a new language and he described 20 most common cases where language was conversed. Next many tricks and bits were mentioned on how to start off what are the dos and don'ts.

A decent chunk of the book was used for some specific languages as advice and basic rules. But some great sources programs and sites were also mentioned.

The book basically started off with you as someone with no language experience to fluency and finally mastery.

I honestly found some suggestions absurd and unapproachable, but these are my personal views after all. I think the book was good and would recommend it.

As for suggestions:
I suggest less self improving books I mean they are pretty boring sometimes, and a good lump of horror adventure action would do great.

Thank you mtmt for your insight - please do participate in future polls when these genres become available.
