I read novels because every story feels like a new adventure and books are where I go when reality feels too loud. Through reading, I live a thousand lives in silence, where every novel becomes a quiet escape from my reality. I don't just read stories, I feel them deeply and personally and between the pages, I find emotions I can't always explain in real life. Reading novels is how I understand love, pain and everything in between, as each story leaves a part of itself within me.
