Reading in voice

I was listening many audiobooks. Then I was trying to read myself in voice from a book. Then I was reading out loud from an English book, as English is my second language. I think is a really nice way to relax, to practice a new language. Online, I think is really nice to read in voice, one on one. After reading participants can talk about what they alread read. Often we don't know what to say to each other. Reading from a book helps us to find new topics, new ideas, to debate. 

My question is how long will exist paper books? Reading from same paper book is really relaxing. With all this internet stuff, do you think paper books will longer exists? How long?

Idk how long will it last, but really wish it never go extinct. But we all know how it's disappearing, like newspapers or magazines.

I hope at least my paper books will survive forever, smiles. For sure people will keep them as a treasure.

HI, I'm an avid reader, prefer a physical book but do also read on a Kindle and audiobooks at work, gym or when running. I'm careful with audiobooks as don't get as absorbed and often feel my concentration lapses. Ebooks are awesome especially when cycle touring 😉
