I’ve always considered the statement “I do not like to read” as somewhat dubious. In my opinion, there’s always something interesting to read; perhaps that person simply hasn’t found THE book. However, my friend corrected me, emphasizing that it’s not necessarily the case. Some people genuinely do not enjoy reading books in any form or format.
What’s your take on such cases? Do you believe it’s a matter of finding the right book, or is it indeed a case of liking or disliking reading altogether?

    I don’t mind the “I don’t like to read book” statement, but I hate it when they justify it with some bullshit reason, like “I’m an engineer, so I don’t like to read books” or “I like movies, so I don’t like to read books”. Those aren’t mutually exclusive statements, that’s not the reason why you don’t like to read books.
