Polished transcript:

Male Female

Books are important in our lives. We read books to gain knowledge and to learn something new. Here, I would like to talk about a book I recently read, which is written by Oman Ahhammed. He is a famous writer in Bangladesh and one of my favorite writers. I recently read one of his best books, Bolache Japo Jabo, which was given to me by my friend as a birthday gift last year. I found it to have an interesting love story with two main characters, Hasan and Thly. They both love each other, but because of some difficulties in their families, they could not be together. Hasan was very upset about this. Thly married an unknown guy, who was chosen by her father, and she was happy with this man. Hasan was sad about it, and this is how their love story ends. I love this book.
