Post #1: Why I Read


     That moment when you turn to the first page in a new book and the real world starts to dissolve around you. A new reality starts to from the words printed on the page and you find yourself being swept into a thrilling tale with characters that come to life with some help from your imagination. Books are a perfect place to escape reality, to get lost in problems that aren't yours, to feel the rush of excitement as they complete a task, or cry as a character comes to their unlikely end. Books can fit any mood and tell any tale. There is no limit to what you can read; the laws of life do not restrain what is written on the pages, magic is real and people can fly.
      When the mundane routine of life get to be too much for me I love being able to escape into a new world where anything can be possible and if it get to be too much I can close the book. I am in control, the characters look like I want them too as do all the building.  And this is why I read.
