But I think I should read more books besides the textbooks, the more, the better. It can broaden my mind and improve my language skills. Here are some tips for you.

No matter what you are reading, it is important to enjoy what you read. Your friends may introduce you the books they love, but those books might not necessarily be the ones you enjoy.
Give up books that you don't enjoy.
You may have chosen books that you are interested in, and they are right purpose. But while you are reading them, there may still be some books that you don't enjoy reading. Whenever you realize that you aren't enjoying the book you are reading, give it up.
Set a reading goal.
