    I love books inspired by mythology and folklore, especially with magical elements. I prefer when the book is character-driven rather than plot-driven. I like to follow the character development from their youth into adulthood and to see how they grow into a mature person.

    I like when book starts with an exciting hook, provides some red herrings, and keeps me on my toes. This is as important as for a book to be a ”novel of education”.

    Excellent work here Przem and beautiful use of the new vocabulary.

    >I like when book starts with an exciting hook… > invert the ‘s’ here: I like when books start with …

    >This is as important as for a book to be a ”novel of education”. > ‘as important as’ needs the gerund (ing form) therefore: This is as important as a book being a ”novel of education”

    Keep up the good work!
