I live in books. For some of my favorite series', I feel like I know the characters, and I will cry over them, not just at the end but during the story as well. I don't know why, but for me books are a sort of portal into another world and I get to take trips to visit these people and places. Perhaps it's a matter of perspective but that's how it feels for me. And sure, the real world is lots of fun, and I make a point to spend time in it, but my imagination has me daydreaming even now as an adult. So books enable me to get into that more!
