I have participated in many discussions about this matter. Do you think that reading books can teach you some things? Do you believe that reading books is boring? 
 Personally, I usually read books because I enjoy it. Some books which are created by very sophisticated things cannot just teach you a few things, they can make you change your theories. Books can influence you very easily. 

Oh yes, books very much influenced me when I read them a lot. I don't read them quite as much anymore, as I prefer to just spend time with those I care about, but yeah, I would still enjoy reading.

I do not read many books. I do do some gaming instead.

Reading books cam have a great influence on many prleople, me being one of them, they give people of state of mind where they can relax and enter the world of which there reading. Most people enjoy reading as they enter the world and live the excitement as if it were happeinig around them. I myself uswd to read a lot, but now with school and life stuff, I found I have lost the time to enjoy such a state of mind.
