what's the point in reading when nearly every book is now a film?

Recently my English class have been told to blog about reading, the thing is I don’t like reading. The only thing I read is magazines just to find out gossip.

When i was a child i used to love reading, but now i just watch the film version it’s so much easier and more exciting. But not everyone agrees...

I don't think there is a point in reading books when there's a film version that is just the same.
