I like to read more of the fantasy style books. The reason is that these books require a lot of creativity from the author, and I especially like how the author decides to present his/her imagination into the book. For example, Harry Potter, this book series has been around for a long time, however, I needed to refresh my memory. I was pretty surprised, although re reading these books, I was surprised of the twists JK Rowling used and the strong imagination she had about this boy and the magical world. Therefore, I like fantasy, due to the pleasure of reading about the wild imaginations of others.

My reading habits consists of a comfortable and un-disturbed environment. When I say un-disturbed, I mostly mean no one is bothering me, however I do listen to music while I read. I prefer these conditions. However, I can mostly read anywhere, as long as it is comfortable. Being comfortable is important because it get hard for me to concentrate and read when I am feeling uncomfortable.

I think books SHOULD be made into movies, however there are certain conditions. There are tons of great books with good stories and twists, it would be great to see them in a theater with friends. However, some directors present the book differently and with no fun. I think if a book was to be made in the movie, every cast member, director, EVERYONE should have read the book because they need to understand what it is really like and how the author wanted his/her story made. If you take example of the new Harry Potter movie, in the book, the scene starts off in a different setting as the movie, and also at the end the book has a lot of action. However, in the movie, there was no action, mostly just dialogue, also some minor parts were changed. I think that this ruined the movie and made a bad reputation of the book. Therefore I believe that books should be made into books, as long as they fit the conditions.
