Who the hell reads fiction?
Honestly though, it's not too common. It seems that the only people I see who read it are the two clerks who work at the smoke shop I frequent. However since it's no longer necessary to have an honest-to-goodness paper book to read fiction
As for me, the great majority of what I read, sans textbooks, is technical computer related stuff. I'll look things up on a need-to-know or want-to-know basis. I also read comics, the newspaper, and magazines.
This is slightly off-topic, but I think that all schools who cease providing and/or requiring paper textbooks. Why are those heavy books needed when the students can use e-book devices or computers instead? Instead they should use e-book versions of the textbooks.
