Students have shown great interest to "Gaziantep Book Days and Fair" this year, the third in Gaziantep, which has attracted a great interest since the opening. Especially young people are very interested in book fairs and days where students come from many schools.
Gaziantep book Days and fair continues with an intense interest. During Book Days, book lovers and students can meet thousands of books and hundreds of publishers.
The students who visited the Book Fair visited the stand and studied the books, said that the Book Fair, once a year, should be increased and the book prices should be a little more affordable.
"Instead of social media, we should take more time to read books"
Stating that society should give great importance to reading books Serkan Çelik, "Book Fair is held for several periods in Gaziantep. I find it quite positive. We are coming to these fairs. I like the place of the book fair and the publishing houses. As if there is a greater interest in book fair than last year. In fact, it has to be more intense. We need to put some emphasis on the book. We should pay attention to reading books, both as youngsters and as adults."
"We always have to make our children love books," he added and continued, "As a result, words and words are the only factors to expand our horizons. We can find them in the books. It doesn't matter what the book is. Everything adds something to a person. I think that in this period, apart from television and computer or sharing on the internet, we should take more time to read books. But right now it's the opposite."
The first commandment of our religion is 'read'
Oğuz Doğanay, a student of Gaziantep University, drew attention to the importance of book fairs and said, "First of all, I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the organization of this exhibition. It is our wish, of course, to increase such activities. Reading books is very important. It is our benefit to read the book. We are developing ourselves in the field of culture and in every sense by reading books. It is very important to read books so that we know what our perspective on our environment should be and understand our environment. Likewise, the first commandment of our religion is 'read'. So reading is very important."
"I find this kind of Book Fair important"
Rümeysa Ayatin also drew attention to the importance of reading books, "The Opening of such a fair in Gaziantep shows that the book is given importance in Gaziantep. This kind of book fairs, of course, is a good thing. I found it nice to work for young people to stay away from social media and read more books. The fair is beautiful, we have books we want."
"People don't even realize that prices have risen because they haven't read the book"
Aybuke Çelik, stating that book lovers can reach the books they want more easily on the occasion of book fairs, said:
"I found the fair really good. At least we can find the books we want at the fairs. Fairs are also an opportunity to find the books we want. In general, we order books online. However, when it comes to such fairs, we can buy books by liking and choosing them. Moreover, of course, it feels so good. Reading books primarily improves a person's vocabulary. We are now preparing for the university entrance exam. We're taking the test, and it helps us solve the paragraph questions. People don't even realize that prices have risen since they haven't read the book. We're spending more time on social media. I think it's time for people to read books. I want everyone to read books." (İbrahim Koçyiğit - ILKHA)
