  • We ask, "What are you doing these days?" or "What have you been doing recently?" The first question asks about something ongoing: usually your job. The second is about things you may have finished. Commented Aug 21, 2022 at 10:51
  • These days implies that it is a long time since they have met or updated each other. At the moment would be more normal if it is not the first conversation in a long time.

The better question would be "What have you been doing?"

You can answer with

"I have been ...ing ..."

You read many books. So you might say

I have been reading English books.

This is the simple answer. But there are lots of ways to answer the question. and native speakers probably won't have a simple answer, because you have been doing lots of things in six months.
