THE JOY OF READING. WHY ONE SHOULD READ BOOKS.

Title: THE JOY OF READING. WHY ONE SHOULD READ BOOKS?



Hello guys I'm here to share my views on the importance of reading books. Reading books is essential for personal growth and development. It provides numerous benefits, such as expanding vocabulary, improving critical thinking skills, and reducing stress. Additionally, reading can widen one's perspective and understanding of the world. It can transport you to different places, cultures, and eras and introduce you to new ideas and concepts.

One best book is equal to a hundred good friends ...”


Here are a few reasons why you should read books:

  • If you want to explore new worlds:

No matter your favourite type of book, whether it's fantasy, science fiction, romance, or mystery, reading can take you on a journey to unknown destinations and introduce you to new characters. It's a great way to escape reality and be entertained for hours.

  • To expand knowledge and acquire new skills:

Books provide valuable information on cultures, history, and science. Additionally, they improve critical thinking and teach practical skills for modern life.

  • To experience beyond your current limits: 

Reading books from a variety of genres and authors can expand your worldview, challenge your convictions, and increase empathy towards others.

  • To improve your cognitive function:

Reading has numerous benefits such as improving brain function, memory, concentration, and vocabulary skills. It may also delay the onset of dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

  • To reduce stress and boost your mood:

 After a long day, reading can be a relaxing and enjoyable way to de-stress. Additionally, it has been shown to improve mood and reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.


If you're not a regular reader, I encourage you to give it a try. You may be surprised at how much you enjoy it and all the benefits it has to offer.

How to find books you can enjoy:

If you're not sure where to start, here are a few tips for finding books you'll enjoy:

  • Ask friends and family for recommendations:

If you know someone who loves to read, ask them for recommendations based on your interests. If they are a good book reader then they will suggest the best books you may need.

  • Browse the shelves at your local library or bookstore:

This is a great way to discover new authors and genres and give them a try to fall in love with books.

  • Check out book reviews online:

There are many websites and blogs where you can read reviews of books before you buy them so that you may not feel uncomfortable while taking a book.

  • Join a book club:

 This is a great way to meet other people who love to read and discover new books, as they may help you in suggesting good books and what type of books to read according to your mood.

Once you've found a few books that you're interested in, make some time to read each day. Even if you can only spare 15 minutes, it will make a difference. Find a comfortable spot to curl up with your book and enjoy the journey.

“Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the destination and the journey. They are home.” - this line is correct. Once you start and enjoy reading books it will always be a part of your life in your life journey towards success.


I want to conclude by saying that, the joy of reading is not merely a pastime; it's a lifelong journey of exploration and self-discovery. It enriches your mind, nourishes your soul, and connects you to the vast tapestry of human knowledge and imagination. So, pick up a book, lose yourself in its pages, and let the joy of reading become an integral part of your life. As George R.R. Martin said, "A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one."Therefore, reading should be a lifelong habit that everyone should cultivate.

I always like to read books and also some novels that contain some mystery like SHERLOCK HOLMES and entertainment like HARRY POTTER (which is my favourite novel) and also religious books tooooo....
I have fallen in love with books and made it a part of my life. Now it is your turn to make books a part of your life and enjoy learning with books.
