Surprising Book Reading Statistics You Need to Know | Episode 111

2019-10-15

Are people reading more or less? And what book format (print, eBook, or audio book) do they prefer? I think you'll be surprised, even a bit concerned, about the research I report on in this video. But I do offer a way to future proof your self publishing efforts.

YouTube video: https://youtu.be/3BVBhpMzGTc

Timestamp show notes (click on timestamp to view segment on YouTube):

0:25 Growth in audio books

1:35 Audio books are gaining ground on eBooks

2:28 Print books are still strong

3:22 Book reading overall is falling

3:47 Books aren't books, they're content
