I don't read books that often, the only time I do read is when we are assigned them in school. I always read the books we are assigned, yes even the ones I don't like. However the best school projects are the ones when we get to choose our own book. That is when I get a chance to choose a book from one of my two favorite genres, fantasy and science fiction. I have never been too much of a fan of realistic fiction, I read books and watch movies to escape from reality. Fantasy and science fiction give me a chance to escape my world and explore a much more interesting one. Some of my favorite fantasy worlds are Middle Earth and the Forgotten Realms. Even though they aren't sci-fi worlds from books, some of my favorites are Star Wars and the Aliens Universe. That's not to say I don't enjoy realistic fiction, I love books like How To Kill A Mockingbird, Catcher In The Rye, and Of Mice and Men. But I could live without realistic fiction, I couldn't live with out pure fiction. However I do like when our world mixes with the fantasy one, stories like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson and even Marvel and DC comics do a good job at this. That is why I like to read.
