Books are often made into movies. While some people like watching a movie that is based on the book, I prefer reading a book.

 

First of all, things from the book often get left out when they are made into movie. The details that the author had made are always left out, since the runtime of the movie is limited. Thus, there just would be big plots left in the movies that always has no excitement.

 

Second of all, my imagination would be limited if I watch the movie based on the book. I can imagine and guess the characters’ visual details, such as their actions and expressions. However, watching a movie tells me everything visually and acoustically, meaning that I would get no chance of guessing or imagining.

 

To sum up, I personally prefer reading the book rather than watching a movie that is based on the book. The reason why I prefer to read the book is because the details in the book are often left out in the movie, and to watch the movie would take away my chance to imagine.
