Why reading is so important?

 Reading helps us in becoming a better version of ourselves. Each completed article or novel results in improvement of the analytical and cognitive skills and there comes a sense of enlightenment in our thoughts and deeds.


Most importantly, reading helps us in understanding ourselves better. The type of genre one likes reading gives an idea about the choices and the possible inclination of the person among the various genres available.

Reading can be in the form of print media like Newspaper, Magazines, Books etc. or in the form of digital media like reading on Laptops, Tablets, Mobiles etc.

Both types of reading are considered good however one must read different genres in order to have a broad knowledge and understanding of the things around us. In comparison, a reader reading different genres like fiction, psychology, biography etc. has an edge over a reader reading only fiction or only biographies.

Reading different genres and authors gives us an insight into the purpose of our life. Also, it improves our imagination and creativity . I have heard people saying that while reading Dan Brown’s novels, the entire scene of the chapter plays in their mind in parallel to reading them in the novel and that shows the brilliance of the author in describing the surroundings of the places which the lead character visits.
