Okeyhlah 4 buku. At least, you ada juga membaca. Better ada dari takda langsung. I selalu amalkan sebelum tidur mesti kena baca something. Kalau takda apa nak buat waktu bosan-bosan tu boleh je grab a book and read. Nanti lama-lama tanpa you sedar, tengok-tengok semakin meningkat jumlah buku yang you baca. Cubalah. You can do it.
