What sparked your interest in books and how did you develop a love for them? What are the advantages and disadvantages of being an avid reader?

I won't lie but it was not the passion for books at the start when I started reading,I started reading when I started buying books from scholastic book fairs at my school as a kid,my principal used to always talk about books,that also added up.

These books helped me kill time,gain perspectives about things,and also were there letting me know that I was not the only one in many aspects.

The scholastic book fairs used to have all sorta books and idk the brochures of them made me want to buy books as a kid.

But as I grew up,and started watching booktubers (I am talking about booktubers and not booktoks :) )

How long can someone with narcissistic tendencies maintain a facade of fake love before their true self is revealed? Is there a specific trigger or amount of time that causes them to reveal their true nature?
