There are different reasons why people prefer to read a book or, ON THE CONTRARY, to watch a movie. One and another AS WELL AS THE OTHER are very good ways to spend a YOUR free time, but it seems to me that reading a good novel or a short storY will be IS A better idea than watching itS interpretation in form of movie. (Not sure about this part; I would use 'film adaptation'.)
To begin with, I like to read and I doing it all the time. I like the sensation when you a reading good book, when you are OF turning the pages over OF A BOOK, even the smell of it. In my hometown we had an old library, where books were standing on shelf’sVES up to a THE ceiling, so many books in one place, it is SOMETHING THAT HAS always fascinated me.
Furthermore, when you are reading a novel you are using your imagination and you are seeing everything differently not like THAN THE others. Also, movies ARE not only someone’s product of imagination but also it is A short version of the book. What you are seeing on the screen sometimes IS NOT even distantly not alike the original story, because filmmakers should feet HAVE TO FIT their work inTO a TIME frame of about two hours, that is how long duration of the WHICH IS THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF A movie. Very often in the movie big chunks of THE original book are deleted LEFT OUT or revised and THIS can be very disappointing in case you like the original work STORY.
Nowadays there are many gadgets you can carry with you and WHICH can BE useD to watch movies on the go, but usually they are very costly and must be charged in advance, or you should NEED TO go to the movie theater, where you must pay for the ticket. Instead I prefer to go to the library and choOse a good novel that I can carry with me wheRever I go.
To sum up whit, I can’t say that I don’t like to watch a good movie sometimes, but reading a good book IS a more enjoyable pastime for me.

Hi, these are my suggestions; bear in mind that I am also a learner.
If you have questions about the changes I've made, ask away.
