For me, I have very little in my life, so it's something of an escape into another world.

I completely agree! The immersion you get from reading a book really is the draw for me. It’s more effort for me to get into than other forms of media, but once it gets it’s hooks in me I’m transported somewhere else. I can see, feel, and even smell, all up in my mind. I’m a digital artist by trade so I absolutely appreciate the visual side of media, but the best graphics really are in the imagination.
