Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?

When do you need to read carefully, and when not?

× Yes I do. I often visit the bookstore to find the news book.
✓ Yes, I do. I often visit the bookstore to find new books.
'News' is an uncountable noun meaning current events; the intended word is the adjective 'new'. Also 'book' should be plural 'books' because someone visiting a bookstore looks for books in general. Add a comma after 'Yes' for natural spoken punctuation.
× I prefer to lead on a paper because I love the feel that we turn the book page, but can deny that this day I have to lead on the screen more than a book because I have to work on this.
✓ I prefer to read on paper because I love the feeling of turning the pages, but I must admit that nowadays I have to read on a screen more than a book because of my work.
The main verb should be 'read' not 'lead' (spelling). 'Feel' should be the noun 'feeling' and 'turn the book page' should be 'turning the pages' (gerund and natural phrase). 'Can deny' is incorrect; use 'must admit' or 'cannot deny' depending on meaning. 'This day' is awkward; use 'nowadays'. 'Have to work on this' is unclear; 'because of my work' fits better. Also add 'I' before 'must admit' for subject clarity.
× I concentrate when I'm leading carefully, when I have to read a academic book to make me understand the detail of the complicated thing, and I do not do it when I lead a fiction.
✓ I concentrate when I'm reading carefully, for example when I have to read an academic book to understand the details of a complicated topic, and I do not do this when I read fiction.
Use 'reading' not 'leading' (spelling). 'A academic' should be 'an academic' due to vowel sound. 'To make me understand' is awkward; use 'to understand'. 'The detail' should be plural 'the details' or 'details'. 'Complicated thing' is better as 'complicated topic'. 'Lead a fiction' should be 'read fiction'. Replace 'do it' with 'do this' for clarity.
× I kind of like the person that detail reading because when I read a book sometime I have an obsession to read it again and again and it is like in my habit I don't want to do this but is going like this. I don't know why but I think because I want to remind.
✓ I kind of like detailed reading because sometimes when I read a book I become obsessed with reading it again and again. It's a habit I don't want to have, but it happens. I don't know why, but I think it's because I want to remember.
'The person that detail reading' is ungrammatical; the intended idea is 'detailed reading' (adjective). Use 'sometimes' not 'sometime'. 'I have an obsession to read' should be 'I become obsessed with reading'. 'It is like in my habit' is awkward; use 'It's a habit I don't want to have'. 'Is going like this' -> 'it happens'. 'I want to remind' should be 'I want to remember'. Overall sentence structure was confusing; breaking into shorter sentences improves clarity.
