Today was the twenty-sixth day of Ramadan, and I finally received my English book, Fluent Forever
This is only my third book in English. A few years ago I would never...
After waiting for almost a month, my first order finally arrived. I ordered the book from the online store Ozon. Even though it was a local shop, the book was delivered from abroad. I placed the order on February 9, and on March 11 I received a message saying that the book had arrived. Unfortunately, that was the same day I flew to Moscow. It was a bit disappointing because I couldn’t pick it up immediately, so the book had to wait for me. But when I finally received it, I felt really happy. I had been waiting for it for a long time.
I’ve already started reading it, and today during lunch I managed to read about thirty pages. Honestly, the book is very interesting and really pulled me into the process. The author shares his personal story about learning languages and explains how he started. At the same time, he gives practical advice and useful methods.
What surprised me the most is that I can fully understand the book. I’m not sure why, but reading it has already increased my motivation a lot. Now I’m really looking forward to the next time I can sit down and continue reading. I should also mention the price. The book cost about 953 rubles, which is around $11.73, and that price included all delivery expenses.
Of course, this is not the original printed version. I knew that before ordering it, and it wasn’t a problem for me. When I opened the package and looked at the book, I was actually surprised by the quality. The cover is soft, and the paper feels a bit like newspaper and slightly thin, but overall I still like it.
One detail made me especially happy. The ink doesn’t smudge when you touch the pages with your fingers. I had this problem with my previous book, Alice in Wonderland, where the text sometimes blurred. Overall, the book Fluent Forever brought me only positive emotions today and made my day much better.
Today the weather was quite cold. The outside temperature was around –13 degrees, but it felt like –19. I felt this clearly during my evening walk. While I was walking, my face was extremely frozen, even though there...

Today was the twenty-sixth day of Ramadan. I received my English book, "Fluent Forever."
After one month I finally received my first order, my book "Fluent Forever." I ordered it from the local internet shop Ozon, and they delivered it from abroad. I made that order on February 9 and got a message about delivery on March 11, when I flew to Moscow. It was a bit sad, because I couldn't receive it on time, so my book waited for my arrival. When I finally picked it up, I felt happy because I had been waiting for a long time, and I already started reading it. I hope this book will be useful for me, and I can learn some useful methods to improve my English. Also, I need to share about the price, it cost around 953 rubles, or $11.73, and this price included all possible expenses.
Today I already read thirty pages during lunch. Honestly, the reading was very interesting, and it involved me in the process. While the author shared his story, how he learned languages, and how he started, he gave the main advice. It's really pleasant and convenient to read. I can fully understand that book. I don't know what happened, but it developed my motivation much more and stronger. Now I can't wait next time to read the book and get knowledge.
However, it's not an original version, of course. I knew about it before, and it's not a problem for me. But when I opened the order and tried the book, I felt high quality. Even though the cover is soft and the papers are a bit too newspaper-like and a bit tiny, I still like this book. But I need to remark on the most important moment. The font color doesn't blur if you accidentally touch it with your fingers. I noticed that issue with my last book, "Alice in Wonderland." Overall, the book "Fluent Forever" brought me only positive thoughts and made my day.
