My Book High

I love the feeling you get after reading a good book. I think that's why I have become such a book worm the past year or so. I love reading because it makes me feel things that I don't feel in real life. A good book allows you to completely submerge yourself into a story that is very unlike you own.You get to visit worlds that you never dream off. Most importantly, if you truly become emotionally involved it the story you are able to feel things that leave you wanting more. I love reading. I love reading because of the way I feel right now. I like to call it my "book high". I am happy, satisfied, but at the same time mad and needing more.

Every time I read a good book it makes me wish I could write my own. In fact, every time I read a bad one I feel more like I should write a book. I don't understand how writers do it, how do they come up with a new idea when everything is so overdone? I guess they sometimes don't.

The sad part is when the book high goes away and I start looking for my next high, my next story. I crave it. It's quite sad. That's also when I realize that maybe I should go out in the world and have my own adventures. I can't say I have ever been the adventurous type, maybe that's why I read. I crave the adventures that only fiction can bring. The vampires, the lost worlds, the magical, the amazing, the unbelievable, and the loves.

Yes, I think this is the part where you roll your eyes and call me a nerd.
