People aged 40 to 65 are the most active readers in Bulgaria. One in five Bulgarians has not read a single book during the year, indicates a national survey on reading attitudes among Bulgarian citizens conducted by the Bulgarian Book Association.
“Interest in reading is lowest with people in the 15 to 30 age bracket,” Maya Bobeva from the association said for the BNR. “The stiffest competition to reading comes from TV shows and googling information.
