  I love reading. It started as fast as I learnt how to read. It's just passion. First were the textbooks and the facts. I remember vividly how proud of myself I was to accumulate facts in my brain. It felt so good being capable to remember history lessons. It's one of those things which make you like yourself more. Later on they teach you literature. Pure joy! Then there come the novels and the philosophers. When it comes to novels, it's nice to read them, because usually the main characters in the serious works are prototypes of real people. Basically you have the chance to live and think from the perspective of another person. Except of the emotions you go though with the character experiences, you gather real live experience when being able to put yourself in his shoes. I find it very useful in social environment. One just become more capable of predicting others' moves and have the chance to build better bonding. 

  I have read intensively throughout my whole conscious life. It was very interesting in the university, when my colleagues used to go to auditions and exercises and what i was doing at that time was going to the university library and reading 500 hundred pages of  Dostoevsky's Pentateuch.

  This one is going to become too long for reading, so finally, I am going to share with you my top 3 of world classic literature. These are:

1. "Gone with the wind" -Margaret Mitchell

2. "Idiot"- Feodor Dostoevsky 

3. "The Red and the Black"- Stendhal
