× Book is like a friend to me.
✓ Books are like friends to me.
The word 'Book' is singular but the context implies a general statement about books in plural. Therefore, 'Books' should be plural and 'is' should be changed to 'are' to agree with the plural subject.
× As soon as I start reading, I dive into the world of books and it, which is very much peaceful for me.
✓ As soon as I start reading, I dive into the world of books, which is very peaceful for me.
The pronoun 'it' is unnecessary and incorrect here because 'the world of books' is singular and already the subject of the relative clause. Removing 'it' makes the sentence grammatically correct and clearer.
× I was very much fascinated by and soothed by all these things.
✓ I was very much fascinated by and soothed by all these things.
This sentence is grammatically correct in past tense and does not require correction.
× And these things shaped me and my.
✓ And these things shaped me and my character.
The sentence is incomplete and ends abruptly with 'my'. Adding a noun like 'character' completes the sentence and clarifies the meaning.
× While most of the children go to the library to read books, some are also go to the library just to accompany their friends as they are not very much interested in reading stuff like unlike me and which is not a very good habit.
✓ While most of the children go to the library to read books, some also go just to accompany their friends as they are not very interested in reading stuff like me, which is not a very good habit.
The phrase 'some are also go' is incorrect; 'are' should be removed. The phrase 'like unlike me and which' is confusing and incorrect; it should be 'like me, which'. This correction improves sentence clarity and grammatical correctness.
