> Apparently after graduating from university 42% of people never read another book. Ever! Now I have no idea how accurate that statistic is, but if it is anywhere near remotely close to the truth, that’s amazing.

is not really the best way to try to convince me with statistics.

I spent 5 minutes poking around the internet and nobody seems to have the actual study, just summaries of it. The closest I could find to a real discussion was at [1]. One survey with data there said that 12% of college graduates had not read a book in the last 12 months, which is very different from 42% not reading a book ever.
