40% of Americans didn't read a single book in 2025. The average American reads just 8 books a year, sadly the median is 2. Reading more doesn't require a massive lifestyle change. It just takes a few minutes each day:
• 1 min/day → 1 book/year
• 5 min/day → 4–8 books/year
• 10 min/day → 8–15 books/year
• 15 min/day → 11–22 books/year
• 20 min/day → 15–30 books/year
• 30 min/day → 22–44 books/year
Just one page a day about 60 seconds gets you through a full book in one year. That alone puts you ahead of 4 in 10 Americans. Five minutes a day puts you at or above the national average. Twenty minutes and you're outpacing the vast majority of the country.
