I'm thankful for audiobooks - I'm relatively young (late 20s) and audiobooks were my gateway drug. Even when I had trouble paying attention to reading, I could get into a book on tape.
It wasn't until the pandemic that I actually tried to read books physically out of my severe boredom, and now it's blossomed into an obsession.
But the amount of entertainment available to us is astounding nowadays, both amateur and professional alike. I'm not surprised by lower reading rates. Though with social media, I imagine people are still reading in large volumes, just of disjointed content rather than actual narratives.
