why do people make these threads

whenever i am going to read a book i just open it and start reading with no expectations or need to "get ready" for anything

Adjectives, nouns, plenty of verbs, prepositions and a fair few adverbs too.

Brilliant prose that you want to read aloud to all who will listen.
>Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta.
Kind of makes you wonder why you even bother writing.
