Although some students don’t find a joy in reading, others do find reading a fun and enjoyable hobby. Students like to read other books, rather the ones their teacher is assigning to them. They like to read books that relate to them or interest them.
Books students read are a variety of genres, from mystery to romance. Some students read popular books that turn into movies, such as 50 Shades of Grey or the Great Gatsby.
