I love these things. I love the fact that often they have a lot of pages and that as long as you keep turning the pages, there will always be something new to learn and discover. And every story is different in some way. It amazes me that there are so many different stories out there and yet (most) authors can successfully create a new storyline.
I love the fact that you can NEVER run out of books to read (unless there isn't a local library near you; or a book shop; or a friend to borrow from; or a kindle or something similar)
One of the things that I most love about reading is that you can take yourself away from all your problems and instead involve yourself in someone else's. Isn't it great?! Now, I'm the type of person that blocks out everything when reading a book (this has unfortunately led to my sister not buying me a chocolate bar from the shops..) But I like that, I like the fact that you don't hear people say your name because it shows that a book has grabbed your attention and you feel involved with the story and the characters themselves.
You might wonder, what don't I like about books? To be honest, very little. I suppose what really gets my goat is when someone who NEVER reads a book, picks up a book and immediately exclaims "OH MY GOD, THIS IS LIKE THE BEST BOOK EVER".. I mean seriously? You have NOTHING to compare that book to. AARGH.
Apart from that? Yes, I love books!
