I am fascinated by books and the knowledge gained from reading good books. Not textbooks, but very real creative books. I realized that for me personally, books mean a lot .When I learned to read, I discovered this beautiful and perfect world of fiction. Every book has a meaning, its own style, and rightly so. Each book takes you into a special world of fantasy and adventure. After all, books unveil great stories, and help us build our own idea about something.
I am disturbed by this question:
why are books no longer occupy the main place in our leisure time?
Of course, you can say that reading is now fashionable, and it became a kind of mainstream for many people in the past generations. I do not mean those authors that have now become interested in almost all things unbarred. I have no doubt that Murakami, Hemingway and Paulo Coelho charmed you with their creativity.
But there are many authors - famous and not so famous - who also deserve attention: Anthony Burgess, Margaret Mitchell, Charlotte Bronte , Jane Austen , Federico Moccia , F. Scott Fitzgerald , and others.

Why people now read less:
·
There are
alternative leisure activities. I think people are put off with the advent of
the first book in form of e-books, Kindle or the TV. How else to explain that
we once again see an entertaining reality show, or communicate in " Facebook
" rather than pick up a Dostoevsky novel? Just the more diverse range of
interests, the less interest in reading .
·
We simply do not
have time. Extra 2 hours for us - is a luxury. We are so loaded with things
that short breaks just backfilled .Daily affairs consuming all our time and
effort.
·
Books require
specific knowledge and memories. If anyone reads the glossy magazine will not
be difficult to read and understand, for example, Tolstoy, not everyone can. In
general, it depends on each me of us.
