I read fiction mainly because I really like to read fiction. I sometimes get a huge endorphin rush when I start a book by an author I like. I seem to recall my mouth watering on more than one occasion just in anticipation. Bizarre I know.
I particularly enjoy series with characters I find interesting and/or likeable even if they are evil villains.
Like Penforhire said, I also like to accidentally learn something or gain insight into other cultures.
I occasionly watch TV, play video games and read non-fiction but could survive okay without them. I could survive without reading fiction, but would I want to?
