Prilly Latuconsina Reads and Discusses Books With Partner to Foster Growth

Actress and entrepreneur Prilly Latuconsina has developed a unique method for staying engaged with learning amidst her busy schedule: regular reading and discussion with her partner.

“

Usually, I target at least one book to be read and discussed every month.

Latuconsina revealed this habit during the "One Century of Rahmi Hatta 1926-2026" event in Jakarta. She shared that she sets a goal to complete at least one book each month. Afterward, the book becomes a topic of discussion with her boyfriend, Omara Esteghlal.

With my partner.

Their shared love for literature was a key factor in their relationship. Latuconsina explained that their mutual interest in reading brought them together. They even made an agreement to discuss the same books or specific theories, connecting the material to current real-world phenomena and issues.

Coincidentally, we met and got together because we read the same book.

For Latuconsina, reading is more than a pastime; it's a form of lifelong education. She believes that consistent, small habits can significantly shape one's mindset and character. She emphasized that learning doesn't end with formal schooling, and reading and discussion continuously expand one's perspective and understanding of different viewpoints. The actress highlighted that dedicating time to reading monthly can yield substantial long-term benefits if sustained.

So we make an agreement that when we discuss, there must be one book we discuss or one theory that we can connect with what is happening now.
