If you’re looking for love, find someone who reads.

If you’d like to fall in love with someone who is nicer and smarter and deeper than the average person, check the library. 

Studies have found people who enjoy deep reading, or who read fiction on a regular basis, are better at understanding other people and more able to appreciate different perspectives and points of view. 

Deep reading, as opposed to the superficial reading we do on the web or in newspapers and magazines, exposes us to insight and behavior of different genders, ages and walks of life. Once we put the book down, we tend to take those experiences with us into real life.
