- Why People No Longer Read Books | Between the Lines with Palki Sharma
Gone are the days when people sought refuge in libraries, engaging in the age-old pastime of reading books. Now, our noses are assaulted by the sterile aroma of freshly manufactured gadgets, emitting a dull blue light that promises everything and delivers, well, mostly cat videos.
As social media consumes most of our days, books have taken a backseat across the globe with many not even reading a single book in a year. So is reading dead? Palki Sharma tells you on Between the Lines.

I would like to get a content from you on the trend of Indians choosing non-IT job oriented studies. We know even if students choose electronics or mechanical still work on IT. But the data that you present should show the overall trend with Indians choosing the stream of work. This will give us a view to us where Indians will be and how many markets can Indians penetrate into out of IT itself. I know you can add versatile sides to this ask and present even more good informative content. 🙂✌
I LOVE BOOKS . BOOKS ARE THE SOUL OF LIFE
The FATTER the fiction/ non fiction book ,the more i love to read it .I have once walked out of a bad movie in the interval and sat and finished a wheel of time series book in the lobby :) . My mother is the one who used to give me books instead of toys to play with
a) Retail stores price books ridiculously high so pricing is an issue .Libraries r needed
b)Schools& parents & ADHD in folks have contributed to this situation
Thank you firstpost, this video is the need of the hour, it's really important to not get lost in the digital world but to plug with the world's best friend....... ❤❤❤
something opposite happened with me, I’m reading now, after childhood days. And I’m motivating others to read too.

Well, that's not often the truth... I think we have higher percentage of successful people today without a personal library.
15 years of reading books every single day! Even if I come home late at night exhausted, I read at least for 10 min, if not 60. There's no better way to learn, evolve and relax than reading books. Please don't give it up guys. Even 10 min daily of uninterrupted reading of a book will add a lot of value. Keep reading!

@vanishree07 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami
@@Srivanisareswathy07 Some of my faves are: The Secret Garden, and A Little Princess, both by Frances Hodgson, Heidi by Johanna Spyri, Black Beauty by Anna Sewell, any book by Louisa May Alcott, The Giver by Lois Lowry, are all great books. The Sherlock Holmes detective mysteries by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle are fun reads. If you like things a bit more on the macabre side, Edgar Allen Poe write lots of short stories and poems.
Books are the gifts that can be opened again and again...no technology can replace the feeling of smelling a new book or sleeping with it!
That's not a book.
Sleeping with it🧐
If you keep opening your book over and over again. Pretty soon the book will fall apart.
Trees are used to make papers. So, ebook is much better option.

Reading book is like a therapy..I always enjoy reading books and watching Palki Sharma's show 😊
Same here.. 😊.. Let's share our books😊
There is no warm feeling than reading your favourite book on a rainy day, covered in cozy blankets with a cup of coffee in your hand. The smell of fresh books, hiding pieces of an old love such as dry flowers, old photographs, and hazy letters as bookmarks. Oh my my! How could anything digital ever replace that? Books are eternal gifts.
True even I also love to read book in form of hardcopy or paperback instead of pdf.

I noticed the decline when all the used bookstores started closing here in CA. Then the mainstream stores started closing down. Now it seems if you want a book you go online. I remember reading every day as a child, and now I'm here on YT on my smart phone. The combining of everything onto your phone has made it a problem for sure. Once we hit the '90's we really hit the sweet spot with technology and real life. I wish we could go back.
Life has become unpredictable. People must keep books at home. Books will make a return when world goes back to stoneage. I remember being a 90s child we had no phone or internet at home,we only had TVs,newspapers,magazines,board games and books.
I am a practicing lawyer at high court of orissa. I can proudly say that there is no bigger weapon than books and pen. In our profession we do unlimited research plus travel as a result it has somewhat balanced life. Reading books drives the reader to another world. Thanks Palki Madam for raising such content🙏👍
I agree! Although I am not a lawyer, seeing the recent judgements and debates , I am very intrigued by this profession. Any favourite books for the layman?

These days i only read what i MYSELF write.
Thats my greatest source of real knowledge.
I'm a literature student and every other day I'm either reading poetry, or a novel or a drama.
But unplugging from social media had been a major step I had to take to become a better reader.
It's crazy what the economic outlook looks like. Early stages of a recession, layoffs, people leaving, because we're tired. I wonder what the economy would morph into. Has anybody been making any profits from the market in the current economic market? My money isn't even safe in the bank. SVB just collapsed. What's next? Please, anybody with tips on how I can get started in the stock market, I'll appreciate.
Concentrate on two main objectives. First, keep yourself safe by knowing when to sell stocks in order to limit losses and maximize gains. Second, get ready to benefit from market changes. I advise consulting a CFP or other professional for advice.
I remember when I was dropped from Airbnb a couple years ago. I dusted off and moved on. Running a health tech startup now, and making the equivalent of my six-figure annual salary in months from the market. I outsource the investing part, and focus on my startup. Every disappointment is a blessing.

Let's read....
This is a topic close to my heart. As a bookworm, I can relate to all that has been said in this video Let's just hope reading books don't become a forgotten culture. Afterall, books are the best friends of humanity.
Reading books make mind calm.
I am reading three books;
1) Bhagavad Gita As it Is
2) Emma by Jane Austen
3) Diary of a wimpy kid(The Ugly Truth)
And I will not trade the pure joy of reading real books to nothing else..
Thank you First Post for this reminder 🙏🏼
Actually, you should read the Geeta press, gorakhpur edition of Bhagvad Gita.... The Geeta press edition has more AUTHENTIC translation and commentary....
reading Srimad Bhagvatam (Bhagvata Purana) here
I am still in awe as to the amount of wisdom packed inside our ancient texts
Try Mrs Dalloway by virginia woolf .
Don't read Bhagavad Gita As it is. It is the most inaccurate translation of Gita and should actually be called Bhagavad Gita as it is not
Try reading Bhagwat Geeta by Shankaracharya or Ramanunjan

Mrs Sharma picked subject very close to my heart. I am currently trying publish a book of poetry and prose. Have been working on for 2 years. But question is Will anyone out there Read it? Another point closely related is writing. The current generation losing ability to write, many School systems in America don't teach kids how write or read cursive letters anymore. If we suddenly lost internet tomorrow a lot of people going be totally lost because can't read a book.
After we growing up...suddenly we found reading books gives you more pleasure than social media...I don't know why!!
I think it's because we get bored with social media. If often either feels childish (lots of petty drama, arguments and people being negative about everything), toxic or it's just the same things over and over and as we get older, we want a different experience. Books tells different stories that we can really get into or even get us thinking or using our imaginations once again or maybe just makes us happy and laugh at times. That's my thoughts and experience at least as to why.
Palki Sharma is the GOAT of story telling. Her delivery is impeccable. You get hooked listening to her right from her first lines. I sometimes ask myself if I can possess this type of skill and what it would take to achieve that; I end up giving up thinking. But after watching this video, it seems I have found the true answer: intense focus and deep attention to detail; one way to achieve those two values would be giving more of my time and attention to books, especially physical books. Thank you Ms Palki.
Can't agree more
@@ashvinis5126why
Not agree
But the fact is we are listening this lecture on social media than reading it in some book.
This is actually true, and I need to return to reading books too, and l encourage others to do so. Thank you.
I'm proud to say I read on a daily basis and have been doing so for years now. Earlier, access to books was a bit harder since there are no public libraries and the like around me, but with the pandemic and online classes, I got my first phone. No looking back. Probably not a single day has gone without reading. Heck I am subscribed to multiple newsletters, it's not just fiction that I read.
Though nothing beats a physical book.
I'm watching this video just after reading a book for an hour
@@sumanthchowdary9699 your words are music to my ears brother.
That is so great! Respect for you bro!
I love books but look at the price of paper & trifold inflation in less than 5 years ... Not even 25 ℅ can afford to read books regularly 🥺😡
Reading is one of my favourite hobbies … I read every night - be it fact or fiction - comics or books… a book takes you into a different world altogether 😍
and for everyone else reading 📖 is an excellent hobby to cultivate 😃
I have never stopped reading since I have known how to read..I fell in love with reading because I'm my little world then, books represented intelligence, who doesn't want to look intelligent...now I got stuck with it.. to read books is my life...
Sometimes I think to my self the 3 physical things I may need...things in terms of items are a pen and a paper/notebook and a book to read...
If I can have these 3 things with me anywhere .. I cannot be complete and funny people know that about me...
I and my books
My pen and notebooks
I journal my entire think process...
Hope my research and discoveries find relevance to the people that will come after me..! The children of children's children ❤❤
Exactly if it's a novel or a story it will boost your sleep
So well written and conscised....Hats off to you and team!!
"To enter a story, you have to unplug"...Finest line
First one to comment, I will gladly say I read books, it's a habit that my mother instilled in me, Most of our jobs require us to read a lot on several topics, lots of people like to read the newspaper still, a large number of people like reading ebooks in their tabs and kindles, more and more people are taking new interest in ancient India and want to read the ancient texts, lots are learning new languages in Duo Lingo and similar apps.... I can assure you that reading is most definitely not dead and never will be. Those that love it will keep it alive, always.
Are there any spiritual books you might know written by Indian scholars that I could read?
@@Pres7 well there are many... Depends on what you want to read. All the books has teachings on life and spirituality but some are stories some are extracts some are teachings and so on.
On life :
1. The Bhagvad Gita
On Hinduism and Ancient ways :
1. The 12 Upanishads
2. The 4 Veds
3. The Purans
Epics :
1. Ramayan
2. Mahabharat
On Economics :

3. “Social Pandemic”
Sub-titled - “A Terminally ill Modern Society”

@@shrutibund5045 yes
Nothing like reading a book. Glad you chose to talk about it. We must be hopeful and do what we can to encourage people to read.
Thanks Palki..for this brilliant report..I work for the Indian arm of a renowned British Publisher, and you just echoed my sentiments..And these are challenges I deal with practically everyday..So thanks very much for highlighting this issue. I watch your videos very closely and dont watch WION anymore after your exit. Cheers!
I started reading books in jan, 2023. My first book was 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Cohelo and that was one of the best experience of my life.
It was like experiencing a long, adventurous journey just by sitting at one place.
Read another one, Old Man And The Sea by Ernest Hemingway, and your best experience will be a bit extended. You can stretch it by reading The Kite Runner and then by reading .......... 🙂

Good choice. If you are into science fiction, go ahead with Dean Koontz. The Fall of the Dream Machine is my all time fav. It will take you 2 evenings at most.
Reading ebooks, listening to audiobooks are also best way of sticking to daily learning practice and adapts to current generation. Nowadays children's are more exposed to visual learning through animations to understand concepts even better which was quite hard when reading via books.. preparation through visual learning aids in creativity, better learning and practical understanding which was impossible in the past where school labs are the only ways for better understanding. Thanks to firstpost and Madam Palki Sharma for this topic and it was quite useful
That's true but learning and understanding is one thing, expression is another. The ability to express and articulate can best be developed by reading books. Same way traditional classroom teaching method cannot be replaced by Online learning, reading books can't be replaced by listening podcasts.
@@nobodycares3953 it will place verymuch less emphasis on reading books, if you learned grammar in elementary school that should be enough to express yourself, i would think speaking several languages more important than reading and writing in only 1 perfectly
@@achillesglacia7700I somewhat disagree, not completely though. As someone who knows 6 languages, including how to read them at least, a few I can write also, it is not just about expressing oneself. The words can fire one's imagination in ways that is sometimes difficult or different than learning something visually. Giving a small example here. Read a book and then watch a movie. Seldom the movie lives upto your imagination. Also words, when read, can mean something else entirely to one person than it would to another when not expressed vocally/without emotion. We interpret the emotions and meaning for ourselves.
This by no means discredits visual learning. Both have their pros and cons.

I have been reading since my childhood and till date (I am 46) almost every night for a minimum of 10 mins to 30 mins. I cannot live without books. I love to encourage others around me to read too.
Bless you for that. I sometimes leave a box of books which I have read but do not wish to keep outside my house. They disappear within hours, that encourages me that reading is not dead. It may be going through a lull but will revive. There's nothing quite like holding a story in one's hand.
I enjoy your news videos for a different take on current affairs from that in the UK press. Always good, this is your best yet.
I am currently fightling the urge to check social media every night before bed. I have not been able to read 10 pages in a single day for longer than I can remember, but I am trying to change that.

Can u suggest for easy English books for both kids children adult
As an English teacher, I strongly recommend that young and inexperienced readers begin with short graded readers such as the Oxford Bookworm Series. These graded readers are intended for second language students and contain many pictures to accompany the texts. The readers are arranged in 6 levels (according to level of difficulty in vocabulary and grammatical structures). I have used them for many years in the Middle East with teenagers and young adults. The students I taught in Riyadh loved them and became very avid readers, gradually building their own home libraries. Many of these stories retell famous English classics and modern stories in language accessible to beginner and intermediate level students. Later, the students can progress to the stories in their original form.

Brilliant! I had been thinking about this for a while now and wondering if reading was really dead among the youth. I myself am reading the 'Chip War' now which is a fascinating world of technology competition between countries.
We are so proud of you Palki for bringing up subjects like this.
Books are the best friends that a person can have. A good book can transform the trajectory of a person in a whole new direction. As Mark Twain rightly said, "One who does not read good books has no advantage over a person who can't". Currently, I am reading the Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz

I too discovered a newfound love for reading during the pandemic. Instead of my usual routine like singing or mindlessly scrolling through my Instagram reels, I decided to explore the world books. There’s something truly magical about the feel of a physical book in your hands, the sensation of turning each pages as you immerse yourself in a different world. It’s been an interesting experience and I am absolutely activated by the power of literature. Reading has become a cherished part of my life and I look forward to exploring more literary adventures. It has become more than a past time, it’s source of joy and inspiration that has enriched my life.
Reading a book.....adds so much value to our lives. Books are valuable, eternal and meaningful gifts. Digitalisation cannot and must not replace reading books. It's such a joy to read, to know, to understand and to save and store your books. I value each one of them. Thank you Palki 🙏
An eyeopenr , no doubt.. Reading makes us spend time with ourselves, go deeper into our thoughts and rebuild our imaginationmm
I love watching documentaries videos rather than reading books.Because It gives you more understanding by combining text,audio,pictures and videos.
The charm of reading lies in flipping through the pages of a book. The feeling is surreal sometimes. Perhaps, the process or style or technique of reading has changed considerably today; but book reading - not only as a pleasure pastime, but a necessity - will stay. It is the book-lovers' responsibility to keep it alive.
Talking about books, I definitely think you are capable and in a position to write a book on STORYTELLING.

1. The art of public speaking by Dale Carnegie
2. 48 laws of Power by Robert Green
3. Meditation by Marcus Aurelius
you are absolutely right..social media is the real distraction. I also have the notion that people are not reading books nowadays, however every year book sales are going up now a days. I am from Guwahati, Assam and every time there is a book fair in the town, people buy a lot of books and there are lakhs of turnover beating previous records (I am speaking about official records). Now Iam confused as these facts are contradicting each other.
Just would like to Share as a teacher, that still my students ask for physical Copies of notes for preparing for Exams, even though they are provided with digital notes.
My conclusion:
1.Visuals help in faster understanding, but
2. books provide that stability required to store that knowledge and reproduce.
3. May be books might be helping them to imagine and produce their own visuals which lasts longer inb their memories.
I find reading super relaxing and nothing can ever replace a good book 📕 ❤

It's shocking to know that book market is plummeting globally. I love reading books and from pandemic my interest in geopolitics has increased and now I prefer to buy books related to geopolitics. I used to read novels and books related to personal development. Thanks palki mam and entire team for raising this issue. I will encourage my friends and family to buy books and enjoy reading rather than engaging in this social media menace.
I have a collection of more than 3000 books on various genres. Some of them are first publications as well. Reading is indeed a pleasure and collecting / procuring the old ones are absolutely gratifying. Restoring them is even more an enjoyable experience. Hope awareness prevail to get the crowd back on track especially the younger generations.
My interest for the books increases as soon as I enter the library of my school and I wish to read all of it.. grateful to my librarian Mrs Alpana ma'am 💕 & now my school is over and I have shifted to e-books..
I've inspired around 35 people to read (Many were first time reader's) by clutching the books in my hand always wherever I go and my frantic passion inspires others❤
These days I am reading Vedas, wonderful experience. I wish I read in my student life!
😂😂😂 could you share any wisdom from rig Veda?
@@Theunspokentruth77 not to undeserving
@@vidyaclasses3395you cannot share to anybody because there's no wisdom there. Only full of greedy chants, spells.
@@2.0JUSTDOITRig Veda has no wisdom other than greedy chants, spells, mantras.
Your ancestors lied to you.
I am reading 'The book of Five Rings' (Miyamoto Musashi)
Have a great weekend and keep on reading books! ; )
I really love the way you bring and highlight such hidden alarming concepts .... really eye-opening for this living gen
after watching this video i would say journalism is still alive and india does have great journalest a great applause to palika mam
Thank you for your time, Ms Palki Sharma. Bravo 👏
@@geranienbaum No that's not.
This news channel is her own.
At any day she can decide not to continue.
She does it because she likes sharing the truth.
You Western People so arrogant.
@@geranienbaum But entire growth on FirstPost in only due to her. FirstPost existed or not.., She got all followers for FirstPost.
If she creates a new Channel today... Half the FirstPost followers will be there within a month.
So that's not her job, she does it because she likes it.
During my 8th, I read a novel in the summer vacation from one of my relative. That experience ❤❤ I never realised in my life again. I will start reading book again
Very true analysis! Same is the sad fate of letter writing as it was a habit years back.
It's all about the touch and aroma which a book produces and it's call magic. Good job Palki. ❤ from Pakistan

Can u suggest for easy English books for both kids children adult
@@Srivanisareswathy07u can always use a dictionary Vani, if you don't have dict go with the flow you will understand the context
@@Srivanisareswathy07start with simple 200-300 pages books, make a goal of reading 1 chapter or 30mins a day.. that's it
Coming or recommendations I don't know anything about non fiction but in fiction Harry Potter/Agatha Christie(in general most thrillers) books are very easy and interesting, they are a good place to start..
Generally most best sellers have easy language
Reading is oxygen for me. Can't think of a life without it. Its been two weeks since I read the last book because I am going through a rough patch but will be going back to the beautiful world of reading soon.

Yes . I am reading comments hera
❤ ... It reminds me how much I am lost in social media.. I need a book
100% true people are reading books nowadays that have become very short. This news is very heart touching. People are addicted to digital screens and it's really difficult to get away from it.
What an important topic u raised 🥰
I have recently started reading a Book called tawaasmi... written by sri Rama Chakradhar..this book basically tells about ramayana.and one more book I started reading is veer savarkar which is written by Vikram sampath.this book is about our Bharat's one of the greatest freedom fighter.i am really blessed to know about a true side of our country's history.especially about our freedom fighters like savarkar 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Do you maybe know (more) spiritual books written by Indian scholars that I could read?
Fantastic...I see someone watches String!

Veer Savarkar - contested legacy by Vikram Sampath is gem..❤
Hi Palki. I really appreciate how you and your team come up with such a good idea, collect all the relevant details and present them so nicely. I have been a regular follower for Vantage and Between the lines. I enjoy these shows. Further, at this platform I want to raise an important issue of using personal whatsapp at workplace these days. Actually, One of my dear friend and many others person working in corporate sectors are suffering from this disease. I am calling this it a disease, because, using whatsapp should actually be a personal choice, however it is mainly being hijacked these days for corporate use without our choice. If we don't use or stop using whatsapp these days, our bosses / management call it an intention of not being the part of business growth. But, it;s actually not true. Moreover, there are many side effects of this technology, which is impacting our personal life and health as well. I think use of whatsapp should be regulated for business purpose. It raises employers expectations to seek response from employee anytime. Company's may employ corporate any instant messaging application only at the work place with in defined worktime. Hijacking personal whatsapp, should be banned. I think you may make one video on this, or on a similar broader issue.
Fully accept that books are not only for reading they indeed build character, increase concentration, help problem solving and so more. ❤
Sharma sharma,palki sharma, if all my possessions is taken from me with one exception, i would choose to keep the power of reading,for with it I would soon regain the rest.actually its a famous quote that I ,ve read it in 1994 from public library.
All we need is a good old book. So true! I am currently reading Mailbu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid. This beautiful book is about family and it shows you how family can be the people that love you more than anything else in the world but also the ones that cause you the most amount of heartbreak. The fact that the entire storyline of this book takes place throughout one single night but you're still able to dive in and know so much about every individual character is a reading experience of its own.
I generally balance my reading books and watching videos. So that I can be updated with the always evolving technology and enjoy the pleasure of reading.
I am a 57 year old man and proponent of the written page.
Please keep up the great (none-bias) journalism.

very well said Palki … I would suggest to make some more video on this subject to motivate the audience to go for reading. About me, right now I am reading :
Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine
Biography of VS Naipaul
I just love you, Palki…
The intelligence you exude and poetry in your writing secretes my creative juices.
I’m among the readers of the old books.
I run a community that emphasizes on reading as a way to fight poverty in Africa.
I’m currently reading “The 5th Discipline” by Peter Senge among others.
I can’t stop reading.
Thank you for sharing
For me books are like my first love. No matter what, I can go back and get engrossed in the same story that I've already read 2-3 times. The experience is beautiful. The satisfaction of completing a book is something else. I, for one can never ever give up reading because it takes me away to another world full of surprises....
