During times of crisis, people find themselves faced with lifestyle changes. One of the earliest and
most noticeable changes seen during the Covid-19 lockdown was how we consume media-and especially
how we read.
People tend to find comfort in certain books, and reading habits and genre preferences can change
during periods of stress. This helps to explain why much genre fiction has roots in times of significant
social, political or economic upheaval. Gothic literature is, in part, a British Protestant response to the
French Revolution.
Respondents generally reported that they were reading more than usual. This was largely due to
having more free time (due to being furloughed, or not having a commute or the usual social obligation
or leisure activities). This increased reading volume was complicated for those with caring
responsibilities. Many people with children reported that their reading time had increased generally
because of their shared reading with children, but had less time than normal for personal reading. Reading
frequency was further complicated by a quality vs quantity snag. People spent more time reading and
seeking escape, but an inability to concentrate meant they made less progress than usual. In short, people
spent more time reading but the volume they read was less.
Unsurprisingly, lockdown also made re-reading a physical necessity for some. Some respondents
noted how they were unable to visit the library or browse at the bookshop for new books. Others reported
that they simply wished to save money. On the other hand, the participants who reported re- reading less
than normal during the lockdown period wanted to use their newfound time to seek out new topics and
genres.
