Why do I read?
I read because I enjoy it. I find it a fun pass time. When im done with my homework what do i do? I read for a while. After school and on the bus home what do i do? I read. Reading for me has been around me since i was born i always saw my mom reading and so i would grab one of her books and look at the pages. Of couse i didn't understand any of them so she got me book more for my age of four years and it just flew from there. I see what i read, people say that you can visualize what you read. Its true you can for me i can see what i read and it like a TV in your head. I am reading at this moment The Death Cure by James Dashner and it is good. You can feel the troubles the main character goes through you can feel the problems all of the characters face. You can see the devastation brought upon the world by a disease that kills off or makes humans insane. You see the world when it all ends and what we would do when the worse comes to pass. I read because I like it, its fun, its a stress reilever, and it can transport you to a whole different world that you never thought possible.
I like your point about how reading helps you visualize and see the plot and characters. I think the best readers read and "see", and the best authors help readers do this.
