Post 1 Why I Read

I read because when I read I feel like I’m in a whole new world that their reality seems like I’m in it, good or bad. I like to think that the stories are happening around me and I’m submersed into it all. I also read because it take away from my own reality, from the bad parts, and lets my imagination flow. Reading to me takes up my time to do something better than just sit around and vegetate on the couch watching TV. It seems that I learn so much more and that I can absorb more from reading than anything. I enjoy reading on my own time, I usually read really fast, where I can’t imagine putting the book down. It’s not that I’m a fast reader I just want to get through the book to know the end because the book is written so smoothly that it makes it easy to do so. It’s easy for me to just sit down for five minutes to read a little and it ends up turning into hours of reading. I also enjoy to challenge myself to get out of my comfort zone and read something different or even more challenging.
