Some people read to self-soothe. Others crave a glimpse of life outside of themselves. Many seek to learn something highly specific. Some are trying to tap into long lost strains of emotion. Some people read because it’s required for work or school (oh, the joy-sucking dread of requirement).
More often than not, the reasons we read overlap and change throughout a lifetime.
