Reply to Are there any books that you actually would want to see figuratively or literally burned? by [deleted]
Not burn, but there's definitely some books that are offensive and I wish wouldn't be read uncritically, especially kids lit where you know chances of critical reading is very low. I'm thinking of things like Peter Pan or Pocahontas. There are some seriously messed up things in those. Maybe they can be available for adults as a part of our history and the harmful views that were commonly held.

Reply to Tips on reading on a foreign language? by Frinnxy
If you want to read a specific book but it's too hard, read a translation in your mother tongue first and then reread in your target language. But otherwise find an easier and more engaging book.
