Books are nice, imaginary, amazing….! Do not have words to describe them. Books just don’t mean your school textbooks. By books, I mean fiction. When I read a book , it seems that the book has casted a spell on me . I feel that I am one with the characters. I feel that I am attached to them. While reading a book, we are forced to imagine the characters, the plot and the background. We can see the book in the form of a movie.
While sitting at home or in the class, I reach miles away from where I am truly present. I meet unknown people and get transported to unknown places. I hear the characters whispering in my ears. Reading has helped me in many different ways. Reading fiction gave me a scope for imagining things. It helped me to enrich my vocabulary. Earlier, I did not have this fascination for reading but now, I spend most of the time reading. Now, I can very easily write my thoughts on a piece of paper in the form of a poem.
Nowadays, people just press the google search button instead of going through a book. People consider reading as a useless activity and readers are considered as Maladroits. I can experience a war, be a part of a revolution or propagate peace while sitting on a chair and reading. By writing this blog, I want to make you all aware of the benefits and magic of reading. I don’t know how many of you will really start reading books but I do hope that, you will definitely experience a new world of imagination instead of clinging to your laptops or mobile phones.
Wow ..
Good ????
Dear Amrit,
Like you, I too was fortunate to realize that ‘Books’ are my ‘best’ friends. They still are.
May I suggest you to do read two books by our Former President Late A. P. J. Abdul Kalam:
1. Wings of Fire (An Autobiography)
2. India 2020 – A Vision for the New Millenium
I also think one should have a personal library at home.
Keep expressing your thoughts through writing.
All the best!
Thanks for your suggestions. I will definitely read these books.
Very good Amrit. Keep writing. Keep reading. Yes, reading transports you to a very different world. Reading is very essential in this techno savvy world of today where humans are getting addicted to texting and surfing.
All the best.?

Yes that’s the power of a good book.
Amrit Didi ,
I really liked your post. The words you have used are very interesting,simple and easy to understand. Even I am passionate about reading. I wish to know your favourite author.
thank you, Advika. Frankly speaking, I don’t have any ‘favourite authors .’ I like to read adventurous, a bit emotional and mysterious books and it doesn’t really matter to me that who the author is.
Thank you again and I’m glad that you liked my blog!
Amazing..
