Reasons Why I love Reading Books, the journey begins:

One of the reasons why I love reading books is because I started early. Truth be told, I have always been a reader for as long as I can remember. As a matter of fact,  ever since I was around 2 years old. My mother was the first person who introduced me to my love as she encouraged me to start reading books by bringing home a a different book for me every week.  The first book I remember reading on my own was a book about how to tell time.  To this day I still tell my mom that she is  the reason I love reading books so much .

I remember being fascinated by books even while reading the books that came in the simplest forms, such as one word books. I would pick up a picture book with a few words here and there and from then on up until now, I was hooked on books. As a matter of fact, I used to love reading books so much as a child that I would beg my mom to take me down to the bookstore so we could buy more books !

I think the reason I love reading books so much is because in my opinion, reading is an almost magical thing and to be honest, I find it quite enjoyable as well as relaxing. If you sit down with a good book to read, it is as if you can go to an entirely different world, and be in a world of your own for a few hours. When you’re so deeply engrossed in a book, you’ll notice that books have that amazing ability to transport you, evoking different feelings of sadness, joy , anger e.t.c,- it just all depends on what you are reading.

Books can also be the source of creating memories in your life and even at whatever stage you may be in your life, reading a good book can help you deal with life quite a bit. The books I love to read  normally read consist of novels (specifically dramatic novels and thrillers), inspirational biographies e.t.c, now that I have a Kindle, I read ebooks mostly, but always pick up a pysical paper novel or book from time to time.

Nostalgic Summers Spent Reading Books

When I was 15, I remember reading 4 books in the span of 7 days (this was in the summer time months and no I did not have a job) ! Nowadays due to life getting busier and having to concentrate on

other areas of my life, I still manage to squeeze in reading at least 2 books every month.

I still get nostalgic whenever I come across books that I’ve previously read in my past. Why? Because they have the power to momentarily remind me and take me back to that point in my life. I am able to remember what I was going through (both the good and the bad) and how far I’ve come. For example, reading VC Andrews’s books transport me back to the teenage summers when I was around 14-16, these were summers where the days were spent without a care in the world, I guess you could say even thought at 14-16 years of age I did have some issues and insecurities I was dealing with ( like most teenagers); – those issues were not complex now that I’m a bit grown. I’d sit on the porch after breakfast and get tomy reading, then  take a break, grab a snack or lunch and keep reading books…

Reading books can transport you to a world of your own making

VC Andrews’s books have that gift of transporting you to an entirely different world (one you want to stay in and see what happens) . I smile and get a bit nostalgic and a bit saddened that this part of my life is long gone and over as looking back, life really was quite simple and it brings a new meaning that the simple things in life are what matters and bring the most joy. For me, reading books has always been a great refuge and at times a great momentarily escape.

Wherever I go, even if I’m traveling, I make sure that  I have one tucked away; – although as mentioned, I own a Kindle now, I still like the feel of a physical paperback from now and then. If you would like to know more about the Kindle,  and how you can also start reading books  on the go while using an ereader, you can do so at Kindle Depot.

Some of my favorite authors are:

Favorite authors to me are the authors who I have in the past maintained a consistent effort in reading their books. To me, a favorite author is one you regularly and thoroughly enjoy reading books from – at most,  if not all of the books they’ve written. These are the authors I keep up with and enjoy reading books from whenever there’s a newly released book.

VC Andrews

Stephen King

Dean Koontz

Laurel McDaniel

Nicolas Sparks
