Q: When was the last time you read a book?

Yesterday – 57%
Last week – 13%
Never read a book – 10%
Two weeks ago – 5%
Over a year ago – 5%
Last month – 3%
Several months ago – 2%
Not since I was in school – 2%
Over six months ago – 1.5%
Three weeks ago – 1%

To no one’s surpise, the readers of The Pulse like to read themselves, and quite regularly it appears. Fully 70 percent have read a book within the past week. Thought we are a little bit worried about the 10 percent of you that claim to have never read a book. Not even Cat In The Hat? Yes, we realize that there will always be a percentage of people who like to have fun with polls – about ten percent, one would assume – so we’re not too worried.
