Whether reading online novels was considered reading depended on one's personal definition. Generally speaking, if a person sees web novels as "books", then he or she should classify this behavior as reading. However, some people believed that web novels were more like " entertainment works " and should not be regarded as " books " in the traditional sense.
Anyway, reading is a beneficial activity that can help people acquire knowledge and skills. Whether it was reading online novels or other forms of books, it was a good habit that should be maintained and persisted.
I don't think so. Reading comic books can be enjoyed by people of all ages and maturity levels. It's more about personal interest than a measure of maturity.
