Why Do We Read?

I enjoy reading for many reasons. One reason is that it kills time when you are bored. Another reason is that it improves your vocabulary and educates you. Also, reading can be fun if you have the write book. Don't get me wrong, reading can be terrible if you do not have a book you like. But overall i think reading can be a positive use of time and can be very fun. I think a book is better than a movie for many reasons. One reason is that in a book you can have your own perspective of what is going on and you can use your imagination. In a movie they pretty much tell you everything, for example the setting. These are all many of my reasons for why we read and most importantly why I read.
