Another thing I really love about Reading is you really get to experience all four of the seasons here. Summers can get hot with the humidity and winters can be quite cold with the wind chills, but to me it is surely worth it as you also get to have beautiful spring flowers and vibrant crisp autumns with brilliant shades of leaves.
