Reading is an activity that we know about, but we don´t always realize it at least not as an everyday activity like some do. We do it because we have to like for school, work, university or any other thing where we have the necessity of doing it.We don´t need to see the lecture as an obligation but as an activity that eventually will enrich you in many ways.
Whenever you open up that book you enter into an alternate universe. The world is different. Like a movie takes a story and manipulates it to the director and producers' liking, you do so with a book with the power of your own mind. In your head the characters look exactly how you picture them to look. The action or emotional scenes are filled to the brim with the exact amount of feelings that your mind wishes to see. The tiny mannerisms of each character are how you want them to be depicted. The book is a script and your imagination is your theater for the plot to unfold upon.
Reasons why reading can be Fun
6. Reading expands beyond books.
Newspapers, blogs and online articles are just a few examples.
7. Widens your vocabulary terms.
Reading about things you like is a start. Once you found the subject your most interested in get books that are challenging. While reading the words that you don’t know look it up in the dictionary or figure it out from context.
8. Reading can open your mind.
Good or bad reading will inform you on things you want to know about. It helps if you read before trying something out.
9. Experiencing a different point of view.
While reading you might find situations you encountered in your life but the author explains it in a totally different manner – forcing you to think and interpret it a way you are not used to.
10. Inspiration.
Your favorite book quotes will always serve you with inspiration.
Here are many other reasons why it is a fun activity
