One thing that has always enthralled me about books has been their ability to transport me to another place and time. The true magic of fiction is it’s ability to dissolve the world around us and drop us into the stories they tell. There's something about reading a story that entirely transports us and consumes us, more so than other mediums like television and movies.
If you’re like me, you could talk about this magic for hours and hours (don’t worry, I won’t actually do that to you). Travelling with another world tucked away in your bag, between the paper covers and within the pages of a story, is something unmatched by any other feeling. It's freeing, exciting and comforting. There's truly nothing like the magic contained within the covers of a work of fiction. It’s a brilliantly unique art.
