Dear YA book lovers,

I made a short video on YouTube about why we love books (my top 3 reasons): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYZjz...

I'd love to hear your thoughts if you want to check it out. Tell me: why do YOU love books?!

Happy spring everyone :)

Honestly I love books because it allows me to escape reality, even for a little bit. It gives me a chance to travel to far off places, without having to leave the comfort of my own house. I would love to see the world one day, but reading is a good alternative in the meantime :)

Thanks for this beautiful reply. It sounds like you've already seen quite a bit of the world -- from the comfort of your own house... :)

Honestly I do feel that way. I talk about books like I'm living in their world and it always makes my honey laugh.

Hahaha we ARE living in their world! :)

I love books because it's such a great feeling to escape into another world and see that world and the people, etc. in your head while I'm reading. It's especially satisfying when the book makes me laugh and cry and I get involved with the characters and care about them. That deep sigh that comes at the end of a fabulous book that you wish would never end.

Beautifully said! Hope you come across many such books in the future :)

Thanks. I do, too.
