    From a YouGov poll.   
      
   With most Americans reading no books or just a few books, and a minority   
   reading lots of books, that means that the distribution of the total   
   books read in the U.S. is very unequal. The 4% of Americans who say they   
   read 50 or more books alone account for 46% of all books read. Add in   
   the 6% of Americans who read between 20 and 49 books, and the 9% who   
   read between 10 and 19 books, and the top 19% of U.S. adult citizens   
   account for 82% of all books read in 2025.   
      
   The middle 40% read 18% of all books, and the bottom 40% read no books.
