I read because it is entertaining and fun. Reading gives me something to do when there is nothing else to do. I like to read because for me it is like a movie in my mind, it just takes a lot longer to get through, and is more detailed. Reading helps expand my imagination and become more creative because I like fiction, fantasy, and sci-fi books which is all imagination and creativity. When I read it helps me to relax and calm down if I had a hard and/or stressful day at school. By reading I hope it will help me improve my writing skills, which are not very good, because I will be exposed to different styles of writing. That will help me know what I want to be able to write like. Another reason I read is for school, because in english class we are required to read some books. Lastly I read at night sometimes to help me get to sleep because reading can make me tired sometimes if I read for a long enough period of time.
