What Is A Book


Question: What is a book?

 

A book is an idea that you can see your own way. A book poses many traits and things that everyone can interpret their own way. Specific traits a book can possess are basic things like an idea, an entertaining story. I agree with Joe Meno and what he says about books being a place because it doesn’t matter if you read on an IPad or a kindle or a actual book. I also agree on how he states that eBooks are just variations conforming to our ever expanding society. I don’t agree with Nancy Jo Sales because why does it matter if I can feel the book and smell it? I can get over hundreds of books on my IPad and keep them on there I don’t think I could carry that many books around at once. I don’t think that there is something magical about a book I think you yourself make the book magical not what you read it on its just a different device on which to read.

Question: Does it matter how you read a book

 

            To me  it has no effect on what I read a book on because I used to only read books Real books until about eight grade when my mom begged me to change from reading books to reading on a kindle and finally I decided to start using a kindle and what do you Know I loved it!!!!!! From that day I still read on a kindle or my IPad. I don’t really think that it matters to me anymore it’s just whatever is the most convenient for me. I say that because I have a Unlimited amount of books I could get on my IPad but only a limited number of actual books because of their weight.

why i read


I read because it lets my imagination be free. A character that my friend describes can be totally different than what I think the character looks like. Reading is what I do when I’m bored it is an outlet for my imagination. I read books to get ideas and to think of things a different way. I read to entertain myself for countless hours. I read because I can and I think it is one of the best things you can do for your imagination and mental state. Reading will always be one of my favorite things to do no matter what I will always find time to read. I like to read because all of the characters are in my head and there are my creations sure the author gives you a loose description of them but I am the one connecting with all of the characters. That’s Why I Read.
