Post 1: Why I Read

I don't read very often, but when I do, it's normally for a school assignment. Most books for school assignments are forced down our throats making most of the books I read not very enjoyable. The few times I have read for my own good, it is normally a book that I cannot put down. When I read a book for fun, it is normally recommended by a friend who has the same interests as me. Reading a bad book is subjective. But either way I find it hard to turn the pages of boring book. One bad book ruins it for all the other books. When I do find a good one, it makes me love reading and feel like I'm missing out. But I don't really have time to read a bunch of books for fun and the ones I have to read for English classes. So the cycle continues, I find an awesome book to read for fun and thoroughly enjoy it then I read a difficult to understand English book and never want to read again. I get discouraged by one frustrating book. I always forget that not all books are as bad as the books I'm forced to read. So most the time, I read because I have to. But every so often I read because I have a sliver of hope to find what I consider a good book.
