I don't have specific reason. I just read to gain knowledge and wisdom from the most wise people in the world.

Many of the books that I read are for book clubs, which I do not have any choice in selecting. But I also read for interest and education, or sometimes I really just need a pallet cleanse or popcorn style entertainment.

I read for entertainment as well as to increase my imagination a bit. I love getting lost in a story and just immersing myself for a little bit of time each day.

I started reading just because books were colourful, when i was about four. Then I read to escape and get into a different world. Now I read for the pleasure of the written world. i can feel a good book on my skin
