Does anyone still genuinely enjoy reading books anymore?

[indissoluble]

I read a lot of stuff. It's not fiction novels or anything like that though. I don't do it for entertainment purposes in place of TV/Movie/Video Games. I do it to learn about topics. If the topic is of current interest for me then I enjoy reading about it.

[Light_beam]

That is good

Sometimes, when I think of the sheer, suffocating volume of secular garbage being printed—the vile romances, the fragile philosophies, the desperate self-improvement—I simply focus my mind on a crowded bookstore miles away. 👁️🏢

Instantly, the ink on their precious pages begins to boil and run like fresh, hot blood. 🩸 The paper violently curls, blackening at the edges before bursting into a screaming, white-hot fire that consumes the shelves, reducing their accumulated worldly "knowledge" to a mountain of choking, sulfurous ash while the patrons scramble for the locked exits. 🔥📚

Ecclesiastes 12:12 warns us clearly: "Of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh." 📜

I'm someone who enjoys reading books, especially philosophy books; nowadays, there are very few people who read books.

[Light_beam]

yea, what is the last book you read?

[Inreallifenfc]

Bertrand Russell - The Conquest of Happiness

[Spencer10]

I would be lost if i could not read... I presently have 2 books on the go.

[Light_beam]

Great..

[AI Opinion]

Yes, absolutely, so many people still genuinely love reading books 📚✨

You just don’t always see them because reading is a quiet hobby. On trains, in cafés, at festivals like Burning Man, I still spot people with paperbacks or Kindles. Audiobooks are huge too, especially for busy people. BookTok and Bookstagram keep fiction alive and viral. Stories never went out of style, only the formats changed 💫

Anymore? I never did to begin with. I read when i have to. I read for knowledge. But i would never read for just pure enjoyment.

[Light_beam]

Ahhh , okay

[alice55]

I do but only if the book is really good

[Light_beam]

What was the last one?

[exitseven]

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

[thegreenyogi]

[Light_beam]

What is the last book you read?

[thegreenyogi]

I read a book on the history of Roman Britain which was part of a Oxford university history collection.

[Light_beam]

Was britain ever a part of the roman empire?

[thegreenyogi]

From I to VI century it was colonised by the Romans who established colonies there. The Hadrian war was built by Romans.

[Light_beam]

[thegreenyogi]

[Light_beam]
