Next, you can read a book almost anywhere: in a car, in a waiting room, on the plane, in bed—even in the bath. All you need is a book! Reading is a convenient hobby as it is easy to stop and then to start again.
Another good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you keep reading as a hobby, you will get better and better at it.
