Paper Book or e-Book?

Do you like reading? Or are you bibliophile? Which version do you choose? 

I like reading 📚. Last time I prefer to have the hard copies because holding a book 📖 to read makes me feel real "reading". However, nowadays to have a book is costly and to get a book we want is also not easy. Now, everything turns digital. Reading from the screen becomes the norm of our daily lives. Thus, I start to adapt myself to read the e-book. 

To answer the quiz: how many words does a person read daily? 

My answer is 50,000 words which was incorrect! Well, I think it depends on who the person's are and the daily nature of work. If we are checking the students' assignments or reading to answer the assignment, writing reports, then the answer of 100,000 words would be achievable. So, 100,000 words a day! Wow, that's quite a lot for an average person....

What about audiobook? Personally, I haven't yet tried. But, listening to podcasts, yes. The recent activity I did was listening 🎧 to the "English Unleashed", a YouTube channel hosted by Tom. There are many more to explore from the YouTube. 

So, for all this while we are reading books from others. What about prepare our own books to let other people read?  Recently I receive information and promotion from "Memowrite"... Thinking about it ✍️ maybe in the future, I would join the programme. 

Lastly, there is one universal book that's been translated to hundreds of versions, "the words of God" in the Holy Bible sums up the title, "Magic Book" of this newsletter. The verses from the holy book become the guide of millions of people and transform the lives of millions of people. 🙏
