If it's fiction then it's the same as some more artistic video games and movies. I get to immerse myself into a new world, a new experience created by someone more creative than me. They make me think, imagine and live trough these stories. Out of all of them, the best are the ones that i can connect to my life. Maybe i won't ever fight a norse god, but i can live through a feeling of connecting with my father. Of parting ways with a lifelong friend, maybe a soulmate. Those kinds of books are the one that stick to me the most.
