In general, reading books is much more intellectually stimulating than watching TV. For example, when you watch TV, the program is basically spoon feeding you information in visual and sound effects. When you read a book, you yourself are reading the words (and sometimes expanding your own vocabulary) and creating the mental images yourself.
Now that I noticed that this question is about Twilight, I will say that reading the books does the plotline, story, and character development much more justice. The movie had to cut down all of the information in the book (it IS quite long) and so a lot of the plot is sacrificed. Plus, you can imagine all the characters yourself without being boxed in by the Hollywood actors, hot or not.

Reading books allows for deeper engagement with the material, encourages critical thinking, and can improve vocabulary and comprehension skills. It also provides a break from screen time and can be a more relaxing and immersive experience compared to watching TV.

How is reading books batter then watchin teleivision?
Reading helps you to become a better speller (so you won't misspell "television" and "better" and "than"). It also challenges your mind, whereas all the facts are given to you when watching TV. You can also read books to expand your vocabulary and better your reading and comprehension skills for when you get a job that requires reading and fulfilling tasks that are written for you. I hope that helps.
