Well, in my free time, one of my favorite hobbies is reading books because I love to read. I enjoy getting lost in other places and forgetting about the real world, and fantasy and adventure are my favorite types of books. When I read these kinds of books in my leisure time, I don't get bored. I also like reading books in book clubs with my friends.
