73 percent of adult Chinese read digitally, including online, mobile, digital readers and smart phones, compared to 68.2 percent in 2016.

When it comes to favorite types of books, Chinese readers love literature most, followed by lifestyle, history and psychology. As for digital reading, urban love stories are the most popular, followed by history/military, literature classics and fantasy.
