Reading takes me to places I could not or even never be. It makes things possible, even if it may initially seem unthinkable or silly.

First I want to know what's happened around me, what is happening currently and what could possibly happen in future. Second I want to be a solution to the problems that happens around me. Third, sometimes reading is just fan... The list goes on but in summary I read because it's important.

I like reading because I'm able to live someone else's life and experience their experiences. I mainly read fiction so the stories and journey's I am able to read often are exciting and things I have not experienced myself. :techie-studyingbrown:

I love to read because it gives me information about a broad group of topics. It also allows my brain and mind to work. Creating a world in my head helps me forget about reality and makes me really happy. There are just so many things to say!

Reading is a great way to enhance one's mind. It also enriches our head not only with knowledge but creativity. It brings us to different worlds while seated on our spaces. It knows how to jolly our time while idling away occupied with the ink filled pages.

I like to read books because they take me to another world where anything is possible. This also gives me some relief from the reality of the outside world. This allows me to see things from a different perspective. Additionally, reading is a good way to spend your free time instead of always checking your social media accounts.
