Benefits You Can Gain From Reading New Suspense Novels

By Marylou Forbes


In the world that is dominated by new age technology, people are slowly shying away from all the things that they classify as being old school and uncool. People stop listening to the radio and listen instead on their iPod. People ditch conventional wristwatches for high technology ones that are able to function as a sort of extension for your phone. People hardly read hardcover and paperback books anymore, much less new suspense novels.

It is a saddening fact, but more and more people are actually refraining from reading good old hardbound covers and paperback editions anymore. If they want to know the story of a bestselling novel, they would just wait for it to be turned into a movie. They would also rather read one online, as mobile phones and tablets are relatively lighter than most books.

This way of thinking of most modern people has actually gotten them on a disadvantage. They, unless they get into the habit, will never feel the unexplainable delight brought about by a new book. They will never get to experience the tactile pleasure of opening a just purchased book for the first time. Most online reads do not come along with that familiar scent of old pages. A book is actually way better than gadgets, as it does not run out of battery, is relatively cheap, and can be carried safely anywhere.

There are also people who read, yet the books they consider to be worth reading are only the factual ones. They limit their reading selection to periodicals, science magazines and subscriptions, history books, biographies, and autobiographies of notable individuals and personalities. Those that are labeled as fiction such as romance, horror, thriller, and suspense are not worth wasting their intellect upon.

For starters, there is actually an amount of truth in these books. Sometimes, even biographies and history accounts can lie to make the person look good, but these made up stories always say the truth in the simplest way possible. They make one experience the truth is the most powerful, gripping way possible.

It also serves as a form of mind exercise. Studies prove that regular mental stimulation can help fight off most brain and mental ailments. By reading one book per day, you are actually driving dementia and Alzheimer away.

It is also a very effective way to reduce stress. Reading can allow you to get lost in the plot, effectively blocking out all the worries that you may have left at work. Too much negative thinking can lead to weaker immunity, so counter all the bad vibes away with a good read.

Reading books allow you to expand your world. People think that the whole books take you to places thing is just a load of crap, but it is actually true. By just flicking through the pages, you get to be an Asian temple keeper, a European spy, an American traveler, and so much more. You get to know what it feels like to become a surgeon, a detective, a novelist, an artist and a lot more even if you do neither for a living.

It also makes you rethink things you thought you already knew. A fascinating suspense genre will make you understand what happens in the mind of an individual that makes him the unfeeling psychopath that kills people off. It also gives you ideas on what to do in case the unthinkable happens in real life.
