According to a survey conducted in May 2021, Russians between 18 and 24 years old read more books on average compared to other age groups. One fifth of young adults in the country had not read any books in the six months prior to the survey. To compare, among respondents of 45 to 59 years of age, that share stood at 33 percent.
