I feel like 90% of any bookstore I’ve been to has been self help (and/or loony new age stuff), biographies of / stuff written by politicians, and military “history” books.

Most of the rest are young adult novels and smut with some guy’s chest on the cover.

They stock what sells. It says more about the general population than it does about a bookstore trying to make rent

It’s because p much noone reads books just for the joy of it anymore. I don’t either, and i actually love reading, one of my biggest interests growing up, classic ‘binge about 500 pages in a week’ kid. It’s taken me 3 months to reread the first LOTR book, took me 3 weeks as a teen.

Brain broke, what do 🤷

I had the same problem until I started using the internet less. While I don’t quite red as much as I used to, It is way more than I did a few years ago,
