With the advent of the Internet, people becoming busier and busier with their daily lives with every passing day, social platforms to interact in cellphones such as Facebook, WhatsApp, etc., one wonderful pastime hobby has slowly but surely taken a backseat - grabbing a book, sitting back to read through it's pages and let your imagination take over your senses.

People who grew up 10, even 15 years ago would remember fondly about the days (and nights) when they pored through their favorite stories/novels and marvelled at the situations and the characters in them. Be it Poe, King, Lovecraft or the rest, every one of us has a favorite book which we hold close to heart.

But the present generation, who is too busy making a career for themselves and going through the daily grind, and the future generation, which is hooked to the Net, finds this a cumbersome job.

Computers have grown smaller and smaller, cellphones have grown wider in their usage, and lives have become busier.

Will there still be someone out there, 20-25 years down the line, who would be holding a book and letting his/her imagination play out the storyline in it?

Or will books become a thing of the past?

Have your say.
