One in Four Americans Didn't Read a Book Last Year

This is a big problem. It's likely to only get worse.

I keep almost all my books, mostly because I think I'll read them again at some point, but also so I can lend them to others. I've personally turned several non-readers into avid readers in the last year, mostly by introducing them to really great books and writers.

If each of us can do the same, maybe we can begin to make these stats look a little less bleak.
