I love reading, im a great escapist, sometimes when im eating, or just in my room chilling people can be calling my name for ages, and i wont hear because in my mind I have created a world and i am just living in that world. So when I read, I like creating the world within my mind, and seeing how it all happens, so to me, reading is better then watching films or TV because your imagination is free to run wild and you are able to interpret the words in whatever way you feel.
Yeah, thats what it's like for me. I've been known to lie on my bed all day long some days, just reading, I enjoy it so much.

I agree again. A lot of films based on books I have read tend to annoy me, because they shatter the way I imagined everything in the book.
