  +## Second transition
   
   Around 2010 several things happened. First, I've read enough of Hemingway and Remarque and I didn't know what to read next. Second, I left Ukraine and my access to physical books in Ukrainian and Russian languages was limited. At that time I was reading technical books in English but I have never read a full fiction book in my non-native language. 
   Next few years were periods of struggle with both finding books I would want to read and starting reading books in English.

  Before school (up to 7 years) I was a very slow reader, I struggled a lot and my mom struggled to teach me. 
  This problem continued well into the first half of the first year of school.
