addicted to reading

to me reading is like a time machine that can teleport anyone to a different world. sometimes i get lost within books and lose track of the time. books seems to warp my sense of reality. some books that i have read were written a long time ago and the arthor is now dead; i feel like i am almost speaking to a dead man, because i am reading the thoughts of an actual dead man. in a world that revolves around cell phones and the internet, it is a relief to get away from electrical devices, pick up a book, and let my imagination run free. although the words in books are dictated by the arthor, i can interpret those words however i wish.

"Whatever caused the slump that, in turn, became a panic, one thing was clear—none of those who had helped to inflate the bubble felt responsible for its bursting. They were the blameless casualties of a disaster of almost natural proportions." Diaz, H. (2022). Trust: Winner of the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Pan Macmillan.
