Those figures are only for print books, on ebooks fiction massively outsells non-fiction, which is where the 17.7 percent drop in adult fiction sales in print are coming from in your figures. http://goodereader.com/blog/electronic-readers/e-book-fans-d...

It is hard to get good figures overall, but if you include both print and ebook, it seems to be about 60% fiction and 40% non fiction.
