Reading
books
 is one of highest recommended methods for acquiring knowledge. It is believed by some people that non-fiction
books
 are more fruitful than imaginary publications. From my perspective, it is relevant in terms of getting genuine information and deep motivation. The fictional resources are mostly based on imagination whether it is related to music, art, crime, investigation, and so on.
In contrast
, fictional
books
 cover more facts and real-life experiences or experiments that happened in past, which provide an exact estimation or ideas to the reader. It could be more beneficial for
further
 explorations in future. To explain, the book written by one the great Indian writers Shah Abdul based related to self-discipline is full of his personal achievements

 and gives an accuracy about what, when and how to implement methods to bring effectiveness in life.
However
, the sources of knowledge that reflect the theories and journies of tremendous achievers, have the power to hold the reader's interest and enlight the spirit to do something wonderful.
While
 referring to
books
 with imaginary stories the learner gets confused with the thoughts, but
this
 is not the case with non-fictional exercises because
according to
 an average human beings are naturally goal-seeking creatures and have the ability to gain inspiration to fulfil it.
For example
, the reporters revealed that most of the international speakers came in motivational seminars representing real-life experiences from
books
 in front of sceptics.
To conclude
, reading fiction or non-fiction
books
 is a matter of interest but I prioritize the
books
 with real experiments and facts because it proves to be advantageous for expanding actual apprehension and awareness with high inducement.
