I dont get it. Why do people overhype books so much and act like they are smarter/superior for it.

There is just as many books out there that is intellectual poison

I, for one, am absolutely shocked...shocked, I tell you! I can't believe that most people have an easier time finding a couple of hours free in their schedule to watch a movie than a dozen or more hours to read a decent book. It's inconceivable!

No one overhypes books before anyone says it

It's just residue from the educational system communicating the importance of literacy

that movies are only in theaters for a limited amount of time whereas a book is usually sold in stores for a very very very long time?

people that like showing off their bookshelves

that said, ebooks and audiobooks are at the mercy of the storage medium if you own the binary, or the platform if you don't

ebooks are also less comfortable to read imo, though audiobooks are pretty great

If we ever bother to tell kids that old books are hallucinogenic, they'd be way more popular.

How convenient that the comparison is using an "old" book. Here's a pic of a midnight release line of Harry Potter's last book.
