In my life I got many advices from my father which was when I was a kid, he told me that I should always keep reading books because everything is temporary and it can be taken away from me but the only thing that can't be taken is knowledge.
I can share my knowledge with others but no one will learn the real knowledge that I have learned by my self. Since then I have been reading books because of my father. He is no more in my life but his advice is always with me, I always wished to spend longer time with him but something else was written in my destiny.
Now with my knowledge I always try to guide my children the same way, I really want everyone to know the importance of reading books. I believe books can be both physical or online. I have many books in my list which I have read and I have bought them long ago.
One of my favourite book is "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter, it is the last physical book I have read. whenever I read the books it showers me with nostalgic vibes, as I have spend my whole life studying books in school and college. So, it gives me a sweet reminder of the time when I used to read books for examination.
Recently I have been reading manhwa online, it is one kind of Korean webtoon. I don't have the time to read physical books as I often fall asleep. This always has been happening with me since my childhood whenever I tried to read books I would fall asleep or I get sleepy and can't focus on what I am reading.
This thing doesn't happen which I read manhwa, I feel my brain becomes active as there are images which I get to see and I don't have to imagine characters on my own when I read online. But with physical books I always had to go into the imagination and I think it triggers my sleeping mode.
I have been reading a lot manhwa and also leaving review about them on Hive. It's so amazing which I can't explain, the feeling of reading is just a great experience with images. One of my favourite manhwa is "omniscient reader's" and I have been reading it for a long time.
It's a fantasy related story, I read it for fun. If you're asking for the books which can give lessons, well manhwa also has that type of story which will teach you how to deal with some specific situations. It will also give you a good laugh and in short time you can finish the story. As for the physical books they take long time to finish, I do not get enough time to read it so most of the times I read online.
If I ever got off from my work and have my free time then I would obviously start reading physical books again. But for now I would like to continue my journey with digital books. But the next book I would wish to read is "Weight of Ink" by Rachel Kadish. I have been searching for this book long time but could not find it, this is one physical book that I desire to read.
