Choosing a novel It was about 2 months that I was expanding my English vocabulary through vocabulary books but it seems not working. I think reading a novel or something exciting might be a better choice. Must find an interesting book; otherwise it will be same experience. Any recommendation?

It's tough to pass B2 :( It was easy for me to reach B1 but I stuck in B2. A lot of new words and especially colloquial words to learn. I can learn them and recognize them in reading but getting to use them at speaking is very tough.
