How many books have you read this year?
What about time spent reading news articles, magazines, or journals?
The numbers are shockingly low.
24 percent of adults surveyed hadn’t even read part of a book last year.
Even more surprising, in 2017, people in the U.S. over age 15 only spent, on average, 16.8 minutes a day reading for pleasure, or not required for work or school.
It seems a bit surreal doesn’t it?
Before television, radio, and, most recently, the smartphone, reading was one’s primary source of both entertainment and a source of news.
If you wanted to stay up to date on current events you picked up a newspaper. If you were looking for a way to escape the day to day humdrum of life you picked up you searched out your favorite author’s newest work of fiction.
It’s astounding to me that reading as a whole has declined so much. It’s no secret that reading is a great method of mental stimulation, stress reducer, and obvious knowledge booster and vocabulary expander.
The benefits to reading expand far beyond these named few and even boast a benefit that may surprise you…the simple act of reading can improve your memory.
Well, don’t fret. Because…
