William Bishop writes: “Digital books have grown in popularity over the past decade, but more Americans still read books in print than in digital formats. Overall, 75% of US adults say they have read all or part of at least one book in the past 12 months, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted in October 2025. Much smaller shares say they have read an ebook or listened to an audiobook in the past year. While book reading is widespread, the survey also shows that participation in book clubs is much less common.”
