54% of Americans read a book this year

"Just over half of all Americans said they read at least one book in 2023. Most of them read just a few books this year: 82% of Americans read 10 or fewer books."

I read about 6-7 books in 2023, which according to a chart in the article means I read more than 72% of Americans. That's really sad.

@noellemitchell I should read more, but I listen to a ton of audiobooks!

@bhhaskin It looks like audiobooks are counted as books according to the chart in the article.
