my thoughts on reading...

Reading is a way to escape from the world around you, this world might be hectic and can cause your departure to be delayed. How do you cope with this chaos? Try to imagine yourself in the pages of your novel, read the words slowly and try to feel the emotion behind each sentence. This of course can be difficult, but if you really love reading we all know that you would do anything to find out what happens next. Now if you can't really get into your book, if its just not capturing you like a good novel should, just keep trying. I say if you've read about 100 to150 pages and its still not worth reading it usually isn't. There are some exceptions though, for example The Secret Life of Bees was dull to me but i absolutely loved the end part. Most books had a lot of thought put into them so give your attention to them and let it have a second try. I personally have troubles reading a book that doesn't hook me from the start (unless i have been warned ahead of time haha.) There are certain days that reading is all i do, especially those cold rainy Sundays of winter that all you need to do is have hot chocolate and good book. On the other hand, the simmering days of summer call my name and unless I'm thigh high in a novel i belong to the sun. I usually prefer to read at night because its so quite and i can let myself go completely to the books power.
