(2021_52) 수호지 2 - 이문열 It was a bit funny whenever it describes the outlaws as someone like heroes. I totally know Water Margin is that kind of classic novel, and I need consider that its background is Song Dynasty. I may be too old to understand the 'unreality' in terms of relationships between 'heroes'.
(2021_51) 수호지 1 - 이문열 I recently started to read Water Margin to practice fast-reading skill. This is the first vol. of the series.
(2021_50) 조선왕조실록 - 박영규 It's my second time to read whole this book. I firstly bought and read it when I was 13 or 14 - I can't remember correctly. It's a good book to have a general idea of the history of the Joseon Dynasty. I don't think the author is perfectly objective in some controversial subjects, but it's not a serious problem as it was impossible to be objective from the first place. What I believe is just we ..
(2021_49) 개를 훔치는 완벽한 방법 - 바바라 오코너 Right after I read How to Steal a Dog, I searched translation and bought it for only KRW 2,000 in the Carrot Market, which is the most well-known used goods marketplace platform.

It's probably because I practice improving WPM these days. I tried some fast-reading skills the author proposed in this book, and it works significantly! I believe I already have a lot of experience in text-reading, and that underpin this surprising result. There are more suggestio..
(2021_47) How to Win Friends and Influence People - Dale Carnegie This is the first book I read with audiobook to improve my WPM. Thanks to listening I could finish this book in 5 days. If I had read it without audiobook, it would have taken at least 2 weeks given my current reading skills. It really saved my time, let alone practicing WPM improvement. Carnegie tells a lot about various ways to deal with relationship, but the logic is simple - Be interested on..
(2021_46) How to Steal a Dog - Barbara O'connor I picked out this book to try new way of studying English - memorize the whole text. Actually, it's not new, but a very traditional way. The older, the better. I know memorization is essential in studying foreign language, so I expect some positive effects from a long-term perspective. following its length of text and the level of vocabulary, I believe this is a right choice for me. It has even ..
