After I graduated, I didn't have consecutive time to finish a book, which made me feel very anxious and like I hadn't accomplished something. The vicious cycle made me not want to open a book I was interested in again, but recently I found a way to improve that, telling myself to just keep reading and not to finish a book. When I let go of the guilt, my reading became enjoyable again.

Hi. Probably one of the books I liked best in 2022 was The School for Good Mothers. The School for Good Mothers is the debut novel by American author Jezamin Chan, written in 2022. The novel tells the story of a woman, Frieda, sentenced to probation in an experimental facility designed to rehabilitate mothers accused of even minor violations of parental rights. She is negotiating a lot of problems. And I am motivated to read by my student children. I make matching cards for them on StoryboardThat. And children motivate me to develop in all directions, they are the generator of my ideas. After I work with them, I take the worksheet and continue to make new learning material for them. And at the expense of books I develop my imagination. That's what motivates me to read!

I love reading because it can enrich my spiritual world. But for 2022, I only read The Unbearable Lightness of Being. I will keep reading in 2023.
