Books—They’re the New Black!

by Shelley Bueche

Books, they are the latest rage among non-readers.  Would you believe that some people buy books to “look intelligent?”  A recent study reveals that 1 in 8 young people buy books “to be seen with the latest short-listed title.”  The same study shows that only 1 in 20 people over the age of 50 can be accused of buying books for show.

I’d love to write more about this interesting study, but I’ve gotta get back to my National Enquirer, err, I mean to my copy of:  A Tale of Two Cities.
