I completed reading "Fed Up: An Insider's Take on Why the Federal Reserve is Bad for America." To put it precisely, I skimmed through the book because it's boring and has so many unnecessary stories. Her introduction parts in each chapter didn't attract me. On the other hand, some writers I regard as adversaries give a hook to me to interest. She should have written about it in her private diary or on social media. The reason why I didn't stop reading is that there are some exciting stories. The writer criticizes the Federal Reserve system and its decisions.

Her critiques are already well-known to the public and target Quantitative easing and deeply depressed interest rates. Some episodes about how much Janet Yellen disliked Milton Friedman were interesting.

It gave me new knowledge, but I needed more insights. However, I learned new vocabulary and want to improve my writing. I read three books by Friedman before. Those are too difficult to understand, and I often sleep while opening my eyes. I'll read them again.

2. The word “skills” is added to make it clear what you want to improve
3. The present perfect tense “have read” is used because the action has a connection with the present (you’re talking about something you did in the past and you might do it again).
4. This way, the sentence sounds much more natural and understandable. This way, the sentence sounds much more natural and understandable.
5. The phrase “fell asleep with my eyes open” is a more natural way to express this idea in English.
