Why do you read?

I read because it is a good way to deal with stress and it is fun to imagine things happening in the book your reading. I like reading fiction books, in particular I like reading fantasy novels. My all time favorite novels is the Harry Potter series. I thought that the whole concept of kids going to school to learn magic was amazing. Harry Potter was probably the first series of books that I read every night for three or four hours. I couldn't put the book down!

I think that anyone who doesn't read on a regular basis is missing out on a lot of fun. A lot of people say reading is boring but its the book you are reading that makes it interesting or not. A good book for me is just as entertaining as sitting around for a few hours watching TV. Reading is also one of the best ways to learn. You can learn so much from reading. Reading is also much better for you then watching TV or playing video games. Reading scan open your mind up and take you to many different places.
