Reading: More than just a Hobby

Some of the books I've read so far
I promise they are worth the read

Reading as always been a part of me. I have always love reading, for as long as I can remember I've always been reading. I've always been a loner, standoffish, to herself even when I was a kid it started out like a fun little habit I'll pick up random books and I'll read them to pass time slowly you became a drug I was hooked. I will read anything that has words, I would look for old books that had I had to business reading.

Hi fellow book lovers, I'm Abeegail, welcome to my blog, I'm a teen who likes Reading, Writing, poetry and whatnot. I've posted a few book reviews in this community, but I've never really introduced myself, but if there's anything you need to know is that I love reading and love words, I love knowing and gathering information ever since I was little. But these days I've been stuck in a dilemma, I don't read as much as I used to anymore. Before reading was like a part of my personality trait, I was the girl that would spend her break in the class reading a novel but now, for the life of me, can't pick a book up anymore.

I feel like a hypocrite sometimes because I still say reading is my favorite hobby by default if anyone asks but I haven't had the opportunity to pick up a book. It's like my mind is still attached to that version of myself. I think it's because I'm losing my curiosity because one thing that has always fueled my reading hobby was curiosity. I was a very curious child and I always wanted to know everything about everything. I would asked questions so much that I would almost drive my mommy crazy, once I start asking why and how I never seem to stop. Reading answers a lot of my question without having to frustrate my mother. But now I feel like it was just the normal child-like wonder and now the passion to know is dying.

I remember the times I would come across big world I never knew existed and I would rush to get a dictionary or my dad to ask him what it meant. Reading has always been my comfort , my peace, an escape from reality. you really get lost in the words, analyze plots, fall in love with characters you know don't exist. Reading opens you to new ideas, word, concept, information but to me it's more than just that, it is the obsessing over a character that may or may not be real, it's the thinking about the plot and how it's outlines with the story, it's the obsessing about how it would end, and when it does come to an end, the feeling of not wanting it to end.
I'm happy I got it reading and I wouldn't imagine life without it.

It's Still Abeegail,
With a book in my hand.
