A book a day keeps stupidity away

I was never an avid reader before. 

I know what a strange opening, once I found a book that led me to read and that was the beginning of an adventurous journey for me.

Books are fun when you immerse yourself in it.

Why should you read?

Aside from the most common reasons we all know. There are more:

• Reading biography books allows you to get into the perspective of another person.
• Reading specific culture books will show you what culture you would want to learn.
• Reading history will provide a background on who you are as a person and what to discover in the past can help mold tomorrow. 

Moreover, I presume the majority of readers out there read fiction that doesn't need much explaining.

Lately, we all consume content from the media. (Most of it is in video format.) Which makes life at ease and, it is hard to pinpoint facts from friction now with fake news all around us.

Here are some few points that can help you find the necessity to read:

• In chaotic times decision making can be tricky and to help straighten out issues concerning topics today. Reading will help you use logic over emotion.
• Widens your perspective understand from different perspectives have a clear understanding of what is going on.
• Data gathering help pinpoint the truth with the help of the internet.
