Polina A. (ILI) - Learning About Relationships From Books

Actually, what I love most is reading books. I learned to read at four, and I’ve been with a book ever since. Books vary; some aren’t very interesting, while others make me dissolve into them—I live in those books and feel everything. Books allow you to learn about life without leaving home. The most important thing for me in books is if the relationship arc is well-constructed. If a book is just action—say, some sci-fi—it’s boring to me. But if there is a development of various relationships—not necessarily romantic, maybe friendships or even hatred—that is more interesting to me.
