Having been here about 12 years now, I'd speculate that the extra hours of darkness we have in winter might contribute to the data as well. With 19 hours of dark there are only so many things you can actually do. Most of our extra time is spent indoors, so reading is high on the list of pastimes for a lot of us.
Especially for the rare few of us who don't drink, as someone mentioned.
