Book Books glorious Books
Hello Hello all you people out there!
Books @beeber said , well I had to jump to it, I love books, I even love audible books now, so answering the call from my cohost I penned this post ...
Co-host ? Heck yes, @beeber is my co-host on a hot newshow that is going to sweep the airwaves ... well ecency discord server anyway ..
Have a wee read of Tengo's show Recap and giveaway winners and set your alarm for next Tuesday 8pm UTC time!
Okay, enough with the self promotion...
In this post from @beeber Ecency Discord Posting Topic 49: BOOKS she asks what we think of BOOKS and asks a few questions...
Bottom Line ... I am a fluffing book lover
I even like to eat surrounded by books!
What's your favorite book?
Too many to name, I like fiction from authors like Lee Childs, Clive Cussler to name a couple, then I like nature books, list of genres is long.
Yes even plant books!
I can read absolutely anything, shopping label ingredients I could and do read anything!
What's your favorite book to give as a gift?
Again no easy answer, it all depends on whom is receiving the gift. I tailor my gifts to the person. One thing though is that I would make sure that they find it interesting and fun in its own way. Afterall reading should be fun, if something is not fun then we don't do it!
Have you always wanted to write a book yourself?
Yes and I have started ...
I owe @coquicoin my first draft of Archie and you will get it for your birthday 💙 I am just not sure which birthday!
Do you prefer the old paper form or are modern ebook fan?
I know we are all going digital, going online, letting computers rule us and rule us they shall completely soon enough! However I am not going to discuss how we are on a path of impending doom with greed and the chasing of money leading us down the garden path of destruction!
no I am talking about the smell of books, ebooks cannot give you that smell!
Although I shall soften slightly, I love audible books, quite often instead of the radio, when I am working I shall listen to a book being read in Audible. I actually have some books in printed version and audio book version!
I guess that is like having cassettes and LPs haha and kids of today have no fluffing clue what I am talking about!
Reading for me is educational and fun.
We should not stop learning,and reading,well with reading we keep learning and learning and being entertained!
What do you think, do you read, do you like being read to?
Why not join in the prompt and tell us!

Oh yes, books! Thanks for reminding me to write my ED topic post this week! ♥️
I also love reading as you know. And books, I love books, not digital ones even though I read a lot in this way. But the books, the smell, passing the pages 🌀🌀🌀 I'm not so fan of audiobooks but lately I'm getting more use to them. I should try to join the prompt.
And well, Super Ed, you better get back to writing Archie. I don't think I've been doing it right lately, and in that regard, I've long since taken off my bossy boots. But seriously speaking, it's a pity you didn't finish it ;)
Are you still reading kid's book at your age..
I wish I enjoyed reading more. I just don't have the attention span for it. I'd try doing audiobooks, but I really can't stand listening to people talk, so I don't think that would go over too well either. Unless my wife read it to me. I love listening to her talk. Clive Cussler is one of my favorite authors. I think Cyclops was the first book I ever owned of his, but Inca Gold and Sahara are probably two of my most favorites. As far as books to give away to people. I'd definitely say The Song of Albion Trilogy by Stephen Lawhead. Great books.
You can't beat reading a book on paper old school
I love books. I covet books. I carry books with me. I've lost friends over unreturned books.
I buy books while I'm trying to sell books to carry less books around.
I try not to. But I do and have...😳
What an incredible love for books and reading. I like reading too but not just anything. Some texts are boring to me. Like the ones containing figures. Unless it's money figures. Hehe
Reading is very Educational we keep Reading for more knowledge
Nice write up
Reading from @dreemport
Nice post ! I go through different phases with books. The last one was sci-fi ebooks, quite trashy I know ! I've also read a lot about ancient history, particularly Roman (that was the fad before sci-fi), and the phase before that was biographies about classical composers ! We'll have to see what comes next !

Do you like Non-Fiction Ed?
I kinda prefer paperbacks books for reading because there are lots of distraction when I go digital. I love books because they are ideas of important people in the society, learning from different individual perspectives.
