Hi, everyone
I am looking for more informal ways to say “I’d much prefer” and “I’d much rather”. I know you can say “I like something much better/more. However, if the sentences are too long, I find it a little hard to use like + too long of a sentence + much better. For example
“I like staying home reading a good book and watching a good movie much better than going to a nightclub”
It would sound odd to say “I like MUCH BETTER staying home reading a good book and watching a good movie than going to a nightclub”, wouldn’t it? What could I say instead?
Thank you

Hi Hernandez,
I would recommend that you remove the ‘much’, this will make it less formal.
I hope that this helps :)

Just saying I’d much rather is plenty informal in my opinion
