The results of my book survey were probably skewed. I asked my grandmas, who are both librarians, and other members of my family who read A LOT. Most of them said that they'd read more than 10 books in the last 6 months, and all had read at least 2. Most of them read fiction, religious or humorous books. A few read nonfiction, and a few read mostly textbooks, cookbooks or manuals. The most regular responses were "Twilight" (bleh), Harry Potter, the Book of Mormon, and gluten-free Cookbooks.
My survey group was probably not a very good sample of society! My family members have similar interests and preferences, and all are well-educated and intellectual. I don't think most of America (probably?) reads as much as my sample indicated.
