    You don't know the half of it. I'm the manager of a bookshop. The only time I'm not surrounded by books is when I'm outside my house but not at work. :read:

    Books are my eternal bane. As bad as they may be, I'd rather watch a movie adaptation than read the book.

    I agree, I also find them a lot more expensive than, say, a game, liked to read as a kid but I went through books relatively fast and needed new ones which I couldn't nearly afford, I stopped and never really started reading books again.

    though I have to agree that sometimes they are a lil bit expensive <.<

    In the UK the Sony Reader is £199 which makes it cheaper than the small selection of (IMO inferior) alternatives we're offered. That makes it more expensive than an xbox here too.

    I own a few books which cost me a £100 or more. They're all history books. I don't know what is more frightening: that I spent that much on a book, or that I feel it worth every penny.



    I barely watch TV or films, and it's been that way for years. There is very little out there which appeals to me, and those few invariably go bad or get canceled. Take Heroes. It was the first thing I watched since HBO's Rome finished, and I only watched it because my boyfriend insisted. I loved series 1, was mainly indifferent to series 2, and have sworn off ever looking at series 3 after 2 episodes. They have butchered everything I liked about it.

    Books and games is the closer competition, and it's no competition at all. Tell me I have to choose one and I will go with books, albeit with regret.

    Books and writing, they go hand in hand. Tell me to choose one and it's impossible.
