#1: Why I read.

I read after a long day to cool down and relax. Books calm my nerve and help me sleep after constantly running around exerting my energy. Its a laid back way to get interesting information about a past even or a fake story that just plays with your mind. A TV show is not nearly as good as a book at helping you close your eyes and rest for the next day, TV shows are a little to fast paced and loud, books are at your own pace, and let you go back if your drowsiness gets in the way of your reading. Books kind of act like a lullaby with words, they slowly sing words to you that help you lay your head and take a nap, you get peaceful images like the sheep jumping over the fence or cow over the moon, planted into your mind, giving you a soft image that is easy to doze off to. Sometimes the reading itself is a exciting journey, you get really into it and you just want to finish the book to have the mystery solved, that itself is a tiring experience and it helps you go to bed, wondering what the else could of happened and thinking about searching for the sequel or similar book to give you the same experience. I read at night to fall asleep, because of books calming nature.
