Reading has always been a passion of mine. I started reading in fifth grade, initially gravitating towards adventurous fiction like the 'Famous Five' series. I would spend hours lost in those books, much to my parents' chagrin, as they worried about my studies. As I grew older, I moved on to romance novels, but I found them a bit too predictable. During college, I started exploring more complex works like 'Sapiens' and 'Emperor of Maladies,' which delved into topics like cancer and human history. Now, I'm drawn to research-oriented books, including works by Nobel Prize winners like Carl Sagan. Reading has always been a way for me to escape reality. As a child, I didn't go out much, so reading allowed me to travel to different worlds and experience new adventures. It brought me immense joy and helped me develop my imagination.
