I thought of it more like: each book gives you a different life, in some sense. So, "La lecture comme une vie" seemed reasonable. But, retrospectively, doesn't look like it.

well, I wanted to be "aimer beaucoup" as an expression which = to like something, hence why I put it there.

Also, is there a rule to know when to put the a/e of la/le when using them before nouns that start with h or y?

why puisse? and why pratiquer instead of faire? does faire have a connotation kinda like "doing it right now" instead of having it as a habit?

but, doesn't it have some sort of escapism feeling?

"Even thought someone just receives an opinion on life, it gives perspective."

I admit, I worded it badly, even in english. I think I wanted to say "Even thought the reader receives just the opinion of the author, it gives him other perspectives on life."

"Philosophy is the art about which I'm talking."

Ughhh, looking back now, doesn't seem to fit. But, aside from that, I generally have problems when trying to say "about" in french.

ahh, I'll try this feature next time. Thank you for all the help! Do you think there's something specific I should focus on more?

Answering your questions:

1) In this case, you may say "la lecture comme autant de vies"

2) "beaucoup" indicates a quantity, "le plus" is the superlative. Yes, there's a way to tell that: words of Latin origin have a silent "h" (therefore, they require l'), words of Germanic origin have a "h aspiré" (and so they require le, la etc). But of course, you have to know etymology to do that, so for a beginner, it's better to learn by heart which word works with which pronoun

3) "Bien que" always requires the subjunctive. "Pratiquer" is more suitable for activities, especially when it comes to reading because "faire la lecture" actually means "reading smth out loud for someone"

4) Well yes, but going somewhere, being transported, is going from an A point to a B point, so that's pretty much the definition of escapism! However, you may just say "en lisant, je découvre des lieux.." if you want to avoid this connotation

5) "Même si le lecteur ne reçoit que l'opinion de l'auteur, ça lui donne/offre d'autres perspectives sur la vie"

6) "L'art dont je parle, c'est la philosophie" (I understand why I was unsure because philosophy is traditionally considered a science, not really a form of art)
parler DE quelque chose => la chose DONT/DE LAQUELLE je parle

7) It seems you're learning French from English. This can be a good idea, as it can be a very bad one. English vs French is like Arabic vs Fârsi/Persian: a lot of words are the same, but their meanings are sometimes different but most importantly, the grammar and the way of phrasing things differ greatly between both languages. For instance, there isn't one 100% safe way to translate "about" into French, it depends a lot on the context.

If you want to have a natural French, read and listen to some French as much as possible. Have daily conversations, read modern shows, read classic literature if you feel like it. The more French you'll be exposed to, the quickier you'll realize what sounds natural or not.

Hope that helps!

It did. Thank you so much.
