Hi! This was an interesting essay which I related to a lot and which I'm sure many people on this site can relate to. In this review, I'll give you some things to fix, but I'd also like to share my own thoughts that came to me as I was reading this.
So for the criticisms I only have two things to say.
One is how you start a sentence with "And". It's kind of nitpicky, but if you're trying to write a more formal work, try keeping more grammar rules in mind than if you're writing a poem or a story.
The second is when you describe the guy in your French class' intelligence. You say, "See for someone who has to ask, especially someone like him, even if I explained, they wouldn't understand." I have some problems with this because it seems like you're insulting the intelligence of the kid, and to some people who don't enjoy reading.
Saying things like that makes you seem like that "I'm better than everyone because I'm different" stereotype, so just be wary of that.
I agree with the whole point you make about always seeming to have someone by your side when you're reading. In the summer, a lot of my friends are away or working, so a lot of the time I'm just sitting alone in my house. So, reading about all the characters in the books I read makes me a little less lonely. I feel like being invested in the lives of the characters makes me feel as if I'm living like them too. So, Just my two cents.
That's all! I hope this review was helpful!
