A survey conducted in Great Britain in March 2024 found that 24 percent of Britons had not read any books in three months leading to the survey. Meanwhile, 14 percent had read one book in that time, and nine percent had read 12 books or more. Results varied by demographic, but in every case, only a small percentage said that they did not read books at all.
