I can't imagine anyone not reading books and being proud of it. When I lived in Managua we had a book club where we would read a book and meet once a week to discuss what we had read. Hre it is a little more difficult. Many folks read at a grade 4 or 5 level, most are functionally illiterate. When my husband was alive we started a reading group, we would help people learn to read by introducing them to books, all kinds. We asked what interested them and found books that fit the bill. At first, they just wanted us to read to them, then they started to read themselves. It was gratifying to see the excitement and pleasure they got from reading. Unfortunately, after my husband passed two years ago, I let the group slide...PerhapsI need to start a new.
