  • I also only read English for a long time instead of my own language.

    I picked up some books in my native language and was pleasantly surprised.

    The language in itself doesn’t matter but I could notice the writer was from my culture. There’re slight cultural references in books written by people from my culture.

    In books from American writers theres also these cultural references which I understand because I grew up on the internet but still it’s not my culture.

    I would recommend to check if you’re country/culture has some literature award prizes and check out some of the top books. Make sure to try a couple as a well reviewed book might not mean it’s a good fit for you.
