Weekend reads: Week of July 22, 2024

Here's a collection of literary posts that we didn't share on our reader blog last week but thought were worth sharing — especially since they're variations on a theme.

• Study: More than a third of UK adults have given up reading for pleasure (The Guardian) 

• “Books that made me forget I was reading” is trending; but what does it mean? (Book Riot) 

• The reading revolution: How the literary sphere took over (Elle)

• Romantasy, #BookTok help book sales in the first half of 2024 (Book Riot)
