Of course it is. How do you get better at anything? Practising! Reading books helps you in so many ways you couldn't even imagine. I mean it shows you the difference in the usage of words like Practise (verb) and Practice (noun). Reading is one of the reasons I know the difference. (It also means I know it keeps the same form when used as a gerund.)
On a less intellectual level, if you cannot visualise what you read in novels etc then I can see why you may think reading may be no good. Some people are afflicted this way - I think it is a sign of limited imaginations.
