To talk about the advantages of reading books

I think there can be no disadvantages of gaining experiences right??

(But the cost of these books 😔)

Now that's an interesting question,cause no one has asked me this.

And that is how I fell in love with books.

The scholastic book fairs used to have all sorta books and idk the brochures of them made me want to buy books as a kid.

These books helped me kill time,gain perspectives about things,and also were there letting me know that I was not the only one in many aspects.

I won't lie but it was not the passion for books at the start when I started reading,I started reading when I started buying books from scholastic book fairs at my school as a kid,my principal used to always talk about books,that also added up.

But as I grew up,and started watching booktubers (I am talking about booktubers and not booktoks :) )

I started buying books, that I thought I would find relatable.I really have not felt closer to people and was always hesitant to speak about things to people upto certain age, and only then I realised what it truly meant when they said “There is no good friend than a book".
