I get that there are benefits to reading and all but what I find weird is the idea that no matter what you are reading, as long as you are reading, is a better use of your time than documentary on the same subject or playing a game?
Why? What does reading have that makes it much better? And is it really better no matter the content?
As someone who used to read a lot, many books I’ve read have been erased from my brain the same way I have with movies, and I don’t really see a difference

I think of it in terms of active vs passive. My brain is usually more active when reading a book than when watching television. I’m still processing things, but I feel that reading causes me to use my brain a bit more.
