What have you learned while reading? Did you read to learn a specific thing on purpose? Or did you learn something accidentally while you were reading one of your favorite books?

Normally, I don’t read to learn anything specific. I just read for the fun of it. It’s always been something that I’ll do purely for the entertainment value and/or to relax after a long day at work. I’m sure there was a lot that I learned when I was in school because that was the whole point in going to school in the first place. But if there has been anything that I’ve learned since then, it’s been purely accidental.
I’ve learned a lot of things while I was reading. I’m not really a huge non-fiction fan but I have been into some novels in the past like Harry Potter and one book called the Alchemist I thought was a good one. It really taught me how to be more literate and express myself. That’s mostly what I learned.

Thank you for sharing, fptopsilver. I’m not really into non-fiction either. I’ve read the Harry Potter series, that’s one of my favorites. But the stuff I normally read can be labeled as some type of fiction.
