📚 In this episode of the Learn English Podcast, we explore books that can help you improve your English. Reading and listening in English are two of the most effective ways to expand your vocabulary, understand grammar naturally, and see how native speakers use the language. Even if reading feels challenging at first, staying consistent is the key to progress.

We explain the idea of “input”—reading or listening to English as much as possible. The more input you get, the faster your English will improve. By trying different types of books, you’ll discover new vocabulary, better understand sentence structures, and gain confidence in using English.

We also share my personal book recommendations, including a mix of classic and modern stories. You’ll hear short summaries to help you decide which books to try:

• Washington Square by Henry James
• The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
• Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
• Pachinko by Min Jin Lee
• All the President’s Men by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward

Many of these books also have movie or TV adaptations, which you can use to practice listening and reinforce your understanding of the story. This episode will give you great ideas to practice English naturally, improve your listening comprehension, and expand your vocabulary.
