All elitist attitudes. “OMG, Americans read at least one book a year? Must be lying, reading a couple of pages and giving up, or reading the Bible.”
While the Bible or a Glenn Beck “nonfiction” book counts, so does Twilight, 50 Shades of Grey, or a Dan Brown novel. At least they’re reading instead of just drooling at the TV…
EDIT: Though I do have to say that I agree with the rest. If someone isn’t reading because they’re, say, out trying to bowl a 300, restoring an old Buick, or they’re just out enjoying a nice walk on a sunny day, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.
