Girl reading.

Tuesday 4th November 2008.

There's something so magical about a book. It can hold an entire life in it, a whole love story, it can make you laugh, it can make you cry, it can change your life. There's no other way to get a message across to people the way a novel can.
So why don't some people read them?
Personally I can't give a justified answer to this, because to not read is just unthinkable to me.
Sometimes we all get so wrapped up in our little lives we forget about what other people have to gone through and how they got through it. Reading a book is a huge insight into the deepest part of someone, even a fictional book reveals so much about a person. However many blogs I write I will never reveal as much about myself as someone does when writing about a character. It's impossible to keep yourself out of a book you've written.
Books are the best way we can understand people, and each of their stories. They allow us to see not only what their situations are but what they think of them.
Something that can let you live inside it, outside of your own life, even for a second has to be magic. There's nothing else to it.

Those who don't believe in magic will never find it. -Roald Dhal.
