A book is a journey; it can take you on different adventures and places. It can make you think, wonder, and imagine about different things that you have never thought of before. When you’re reading a book it feels like you are on a journey because you are only thinking about the book and everything from reality is behind you. The journey a book takes you on feels as if you are in the air, away from all the pressure and stress from the world. When you’re reading a book, it can take you to different places, imagine things you have never imagined before, or give you a sense of someone else’s opinions on a certain topic. It allows you to hear other voices from different people.
Opinions that I would agree with from the different writers would be, Nancy Jo Sales. I agree with her because I believe that she is right about books being something that can never be forgotten because we need it to much in our lives, I also agree with her on that there’s something about books that we will always need. Opinions that I would disagree on would be, Victor LaValle., “It’s not the book, it’s the idea of the book” I disagree with what Victor LaValle said because I believe that it is the book and the idea of the book. I believe it does matter what form the book comes in. A book on any electronic device would not be the same for me than a regular book because I enjoy reading books that have side notes and you can physically flip the pages. I think it has more meaning to it than any electronic devices would. I think there is something magical about books because like I said, it can make you imagine more about things you have never thought about or imagined before.
