You don’t have to read Shakespeare to learn new words. In fact, it doesn’t have to be something very difficult unless that’s what you want to read. It’s the process that matters — you will improve your vocabulary anyway.

Read what you like. Pay attention to the language and how it’s used. Don’t do this for too many hours in a row. Even 20 minutes a day is enough. When you are tired, listen to an audiobook. This is also helpful.

When choosing a book, remember that it’s sometimes good to think outside the box. If you like reading news about technology, try reading about sports. If you like detective stories, read sci-fi for a change.

In different genres, writers use different language. New words in a different context are easier to memorize.
