there is nothing like sitting down, grabbing a snack, and get on the computer to blow off some heads.

And after a long period of decapitating, mauling, shooting, and swearing, there is nothing like grabbing a blanket, getting comfortable in my bed, and cracking open a good book.

There is something about reading that is incomparable to a game. Games are fun and they can bring you to an alternate reality that lets yourself unleash the inner crazy person inside of you. However, there is only so much you can do in a game. Compared to a good book, everything is concrete. There is no room for more. There is only what is supposed to happen. Going from point A to point B.

In a book, there is the storyline, the protagonists, the antagonists, the setting, and so much more. Books bring you to an alternate reality that you can not only experience the story with your own eyes, but feel the same emotions, the same sense of adventure, the same thrills that your character feels in the book. The story doesn’t end at the last page. The story lives on in your head. When you go to sleep that day, the story continues in your dream. When you take in the text, a whole world is built in your mind and takes no definite form. The whole world is transforming in your mind whether you like it or not and there is no limit or boundaries in what you see.
