Why I read

I live a normal life. I go to school, come home, do my homework, and hang out with my friends. But when I read I can be anything, a warrior fighting a dragon or an explorer finding some lost treasure or wizard casting a spell. I know everyone says this but for me it is different. I become the the character. I am the character. I get so caught up in a book I almost forget that it is just words on a sheet of paper and it becomes its own world. Perhaps that is why I am irritable when I am yanked out of my fantasies onto the real world. I want to go back and even if I do respond to you it is likely I will be snappish and slightly rude.Some people don’t get this but for me reading is more than just fun. Reading for me is an escape. A trip to some far away land. I don’t know,does anyone else feel this way? Do the books you are reading ever come alive?

Welcome

This is a blog where I write about things I read.  I love to read and might end up spoiling a plot if you aren't careful.  So to prevent this from occurring I will post in the title what book it is about and if you haven't read it don't read my post,unless you want the story spoiled. I don't know if there is anyone reading this so it feels like I am talking to myself.  A little weird. So comment if you are reading this please.
