Reading

      I like to read fantasy and thriller novels. I am currently making my way through Game of Thrones collection I am a fan of series books I can't start one without having the whole collection. I believe reading is hugely underrated and it can take you anywhere you want, for me reading is like watching tv, you can see what you hear with tv but with reading I can imagine what im seeing for me its the  perception, my point of view of the story.
