Book

Books are a house of literature, one of the few entirely-physical mediae houses. They're also by far the oldest out of all mediae, being created in the third millennium in an Asian country (surprisingly not China). Books consist of a cover (hard or soft), pages with words (pictures may be included), and a spine to hold the pages all together.

Books, being one of few mediae to be completely physical, are unique. Outside of picture books or books that have pictures of characters, instead of showing the audience what the environment and characters like how movies and TV shows do, novels rely on descriptive language for the readers to build a mental image of what the world may look like, allowing each reader to have their own depiction of setting and people in the story.
