Thank you! When I was talking , someone said that I talk like I am reading a book. Is spoken English different from written English in books? All English I kno

  It can be. Dialogue tends to take shortcuts to make it shorter, to have run on sentences, and to use some colloquialisms not often found in books. I think watching people communicate in TV and movies is a reasonable recommendation, but you'll likely have to tone down the drama :) EDIT: Also podcasts or talk shows, potentially. I had this problem with German and I solved it by going to bars and chatting with people, but that's not super possible these days.
