What May You Ask Is A Book?

A book is a series of ink, paper, thread, and card board used in a unique way as a cover (Hard cover books). Most people can't put words to what a book is. A book is imagination, imagination of some mythical land, vampires, wizards, competitions, fighting evil. There is so many things a book is capable of doing. A book can take you on a magical journey, through a love story, soaring through space and time, pull you into a magical circus full of wonder and enchantment, or even take you through a characters life. There is really so much a book can do. On a personal level I prefer books rather than an electronic version because there is something so timeless about a book that isn't timeless about a device, devices get old, out dated and worn out. Not saying books cant do any of those things its just that technology is being so updated and fast paced its nice to just sit down with something that doesn't involved being plugged in on the porch or in your room. Its just something nice. On a more humorous note, I don't think a book should be able to run out of batteries. A book is like Lady Gaga able to put on so many personas and still be very interesting, everyone at least likes one book, just like every one probably likes something about Lady Gaga, weather it be her daring fashion or unique music lyrics or just her in general and you never know what might be coming next O_O. You might also be able to compare a book to a persons that has multiple personality disorder. The opinion that one author had that really stood out to me was at the end of Ms. Nancy Jo Sales; "I don't think books will ever disappear for this reason: We need them too much. They remind us that we exist; they show us how we have lived." I honestly don't know how I can begin to explain why this stood out to me so much. I think its because what she said about actual books at the end really made me think. Do books really show that we are still here? Do they really remind us that we exist. I don't know for sure. However it's a very interesting way of putting things. Now this post is becoming way longer than I intended. Though there is so much to say. I hope everyone is having a particularly lovely day.
