When I read for pleasure or for my studies (which are usually two connected things) I forget everything else: I create my own world, made of words or formulae and equations, that create something like a Faraday cage that separates me from my problems, forcing them to lie outside.
When I read I live not only my usually-boring life, but the lives of the characters of the book I'm holding in my hands.
When I read I feel alive, I feed my brain and heart and I'm just happy about it.

I like the way reading can bring me to another place and time completely, allowing my mind and heart to imagine the story playing out. This is also why book vs movie to me inevitably leans toward book. I have already played out the book and have my way "seeing" it take place.
