Why do we enjoy reading?
It allows more space to delve into a character and the world than traditional films allow. I think because you have to imagine everything, it gives me more fulfilment as we result. Overall, it’s very fulfilling for me as it makes me see more wonder in the world.
It allows me to take myself away from the busyness of my life, to have some time to relax away from my phone and other commitments I have. It’s a nice way to spend my down time to immerse myself into a good plot line.
