A book is a different world. I say this for more than one
reason. The book is a different world for the author because they get to write
about however they think the world should be. Maybe they will write about how
the world shouldn’t be. The point is they get to make up and express any type
of world in their writing that they feel the readers should learn about or be
introduced to. In my opinion, the authors that can take one small idea/event
and turn it into a huge made up story are so talented. I think it’s amazing that
they can make up their on dialog and make it sound so real and like it has
actually happened.
The other reason I think a book is a different world is for
the reader. This is because they can totally forget about the real world or
their world and only concentrate on the books world. I think the book being a
different world can pull readers in and get them interested in the story that
isn’t even real. The readers find joy in reading something completely made up
by the author. I find it very interesting that the writer has the ability to
get the reader’s attention for that long.
On the other hand, I think that the way you read the book
doesn’t really matter. I feel like if it has the same words in the same order
it’s the same thing. Personally I like being able to flip pages when I’m
reading and really know what page I’m on. But I also know that a lot of people
don’t like doing that. I have never actually read a book on a kindle or an iPad
but I don’t think I would like it because whenever I stare at a screen for too
long I get a headache.
