Can see the changes between a book and a movie

Even if we like the film adaptation, most book-lovers take intense mental (or literal) notes on every scene, character, and line of dialogue that's different. We might forget birthdays and keys, but we remember every Ron line that was inexplicably given to Hermione in the movie. Same goes for TV shows. Don't watch Game of Thrones with me unless you want to hear my lengthy feelings about the changes to the Dorne plot line. 2.  Pull an All-Nighter If the book is good enough, book-lovers have the ability to go for long periods of time without food, sleep, or social interaction. All we need is a flashlight and a novel, and we're happy until dawn. We might not be great at showing up to work on time the next morning, but we don't let a little thing like sleep deprivation get in the way of reading. 3. Can read anywhere whether it's a Train, bus So what if we miss a stop every once in a while? Book-lovers are excellent at shutting out the so-called real world. We might prefer peace and quiet, but in a pinch we can read just about anywhere (which also makes us excellent at avoiding eye contact with strangers). 4. Keep a well-loved book together  What some people consider a loose pile of pages, we consider a beloved member of the family. Some book-lovers are more precious with their books than others, but all book-lover are naturally gifted at nursing damaged and well-loved books through multiple re-reads. Tape is a book-lover's best friend. 5. Apply Literature to life Sometimes it's frustrating to be a book-lover. You just want to explain how Shakespeare, or George R.R. Martin, or Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie perfectly encapsulates all of your feelings about a particular political issue, but other people don't seem to get it. That's OK, book-lovers. Your ability to see how literature reflects real life and visa versa is actually a skill, and you're not nuts to think that books might help you better understand the real world. Fiction does make you more empathetic, after all.
