You Are What You Read




                            

           

We all know that reading is a good habit. There are a lot of reading material at the bookstore currently such as comics, magazines, novels, education books, newspapers and etc. The more you read the more knowledge you gained? I think it's not about how many books you read, it's about what you read. The contents are more important as I do believe that what we read will reflect our personalities. As what Ralph Waldo Emerson who was an American essayist, lecturers, poet quoted that "a man is known by the books he reads".  For examples, a person who reads comics usually has crazy ideas, a bit childish and it usually relates with a boy's life. A person who reads magazines are usually into fashion and up-to-date about it. Whereas person who reads novels are usually will automatically categorized as emotional, love to fantasize and mostly they are women readers. In short, the most important thing is what the benefits that you gained from what you read. "You're the same today as you will be in five years except for the people you meet and the books you read " - Charlie 'Tremendous' Jones.
