I Disappear Into Books

I disappear into books. What’s your superpower?

Good novels are wonderful; so too are memoirs, autobiographies, biographies, political and historical nonfiction works, science and technology books, poetry collections, young adult fiction and so on. A good book, regardless of genre, transports one to another world and sparks the urge to read voraciously. In fact, studies suggest all kinds of benefits to reading, including increased empathy, stress reduction and memory retention. It can even curb your criminal instincts, according to some researchers, which means that there is never a bad time to pick up a book.

Books and libraries are treasures. Thank you to all the authors whose works make us think, stir multiple emotion and make us ponder the various aspects of life and human conditions.
