Books over tv shows

I do think that I love books more than any other form of entertainment. If I'm holding a good book, I wouldn't mind missing a good movie or listening to a good album etc. (although now that I think about it, I do believe that a good theater act might trump a good book:D).

I love good books - I don't know the authors well, but if I have read the book then I almost never forget if it was good or it was bad. I'm no critique but I know when I'm entertained and when I'm bored. Right now I'm reading Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian and it's certainly a refreshing novel after the Twilight series. Before that, I finished the Narnia series which I surprised myself by liking a lot (I'm not a fan of the movie versions but the books were amazing!).

TV shows, I think, are great when I'm trying to relax from work and I'm dead tired. Books are entertaining and wonderful but they tend to keep me up longer than I want to. TV shows on the other hand are my "sleeping pills". After a couple of them, I'm ready to doze off peacefully :D (Books are too thrilling to put down after only a few pages).

I'm trying to keep a list of books I've read so far right here.
