Among Generation Z, Millennials, Generation X, Baby Boomers, and the Silent Generation, which group is most likely to read a book? The answer is Millennials (Gen Y).
While all generations enjoy reading, there are significant differences in content preferences and reading habits. Key highlights from the infographic include:
- Since the onset of the Corona virus, Generation Z (aged 7-27) has increased their reading habits more than other generations.
- Millennials (aged 28-42) not only read the most but also visit libraries more frequently than other age groups.
- Print books remain popular across all generations, despite a general preference for reading news online.
While Baby Boomers (aged 58-77) and the Silent Generation (aged 78 and above) often find their books through bestseller lists, Generation Z discovers books primarily through social media.
Generation X (aged 43-57) consumes online news the most daily, followed closely by Millennials.
