there are many reasons why i read. i think that a good book always surpasses a good film. in books everything is so much more real. you can put your own imprint in it with the images in your own imagination, and the books that you read make you wiser.
it helps you deal with every day life. if a character looses someone close, it helps you understand why we feel the way we do. it makes you happy for the things you have and it can inspire you to change the world.
books are magical, they record and write things so that future generations can experience the past as it was when it was present. books are much more than just entertainment. they hold knowledge and history.
without books, we would not know half as much about our ancient races as we do, and train journeys would be very boring without tolkien, dickens, bronte, and many other classics.
