Are you reluctant to curl up with a good book? Were you once an avid reader, but you’ve lost the habit? Is there always something more important to do, or more TV series to binge watch, or more social media to scroll?
You are not alone. A UK study in 2015 revealed that almost a third of the population, about 16 million people, were lapsed readers. They had not read since leaving formal education, or because their reading habits had been interrupted by illness or a major life event, such as having a child. Nearly half said that lack of time was the reason they didn’t read, or didn’t read more frequently. We can assume similar figures for Australia.
