You remember the title of your last book read? I hope not the phone book or tabloid magazines!!!
People not read and do not go to the cinema anymore!I am right or not?
When the film appeared, it was predicted loss of interest in reading, and when the Internet emerged, it was said that no literature or film will not be public curiosity. Debate on preference between a movie and a book with the same subject can not be concluded, reading fans will always defend the writer's vision and imagination.
What was the last book you read? Do you still have books in your house?
Do you remember how look a ticket for cinema? Which films have you last seen at the cinema?
Do not get me wrong,i am not against the internet, computer, technology .... but seem to be a bit nostalgic after a book ... a movie, a walk in the park .... You're not nostalgic?

The name of the last book I read was Go Givers Sell More, by Bob Burg and some other guy, prior to that was How to Win Friends and Influence People, Prior to that The Book Of Mormon, Success in 10 Steps, Several of Tom 'big al' Schrieter's books, though those were electronic form.
I am currently reading, the Holy Bible KJV, the book of mormon again, Jesus the Christ, Gospel Principles, How to Win Friends and Influence People(third time, it is a really good book)
My next book, will be The Quick and Easy Way to Effective Speaking.
The last film I went to see, was Avatar, I really liked the effects, and the story. I do not go to films much, but we love to go for walks.
With appreciation.

With books, I still read books a lot. They are like manuals to me. The title of the book that I am currently reading is "The Neatest Little Guide to Stock Market Investing" by Jason Kelly. Books can make you rich! :)

I am reading 'the gathering storm' at the moment,it is one of the wheel of time books.
I love reading and would have no trouble if we didn't have computers or TV.
We really need to have a few weeks of simplicity in our lives every now and again,no telly ,no computers, no microwave ovens, just plain living and being.
I suppose that is why camping is so popular.

I will focus on the title of this discussion. The title of this discussion is books vs. tv and computer..i would rather choose computer why? because computer's cover everything..you can watched tv over computer you could also read books here and most specially you could also reply to mylot discussion.

The last book I read was Die Trying by Lee Child and I have quite a few books in my house. Last time I went to the cinema was in 1996 to watch Se7en - I don't have an issue with going to the cinema, I just cannot sit still for the length of a film. I much rather watch it on DVD so I can pause when I need a break. Can't say I'm particularly nostalgic no. x

Hi icesmile! Well, not really, in fact, I still remember the last book I read by Mike Murdock titled 31 Reasons For Career Success and I'm reading it for the second time because it's a great book that I'm really getting into it. I guess that's the big difference with a book, it really lets you visualize, think, and imagine more and more.

Last book that ive read was "Erangon" (Its like "Lord of the rings". I like to read a book and then go to the movie. The last film that ive saw was "Scherlock Holmes". It was a great movie and had the same style like "Angels and Demons". And no, im not nostalgic.
