“A room without books is a life without soul”

-Marcus Tullius Cicero

Books can be called as man’s best friend as they always help us in the journey of life in some way or the other. Books reduces stress and transport you to another world and distracts you from the present moment

It is like a therapist. So, rather than spending huge amount of money on a therapist you can just read a book.
