“Top 10 Most Read Books in the World”. Visual News makes a bar chart to compare the top ten books in the world, based from a report from the website Squidoo. The infographic shows that 3.9 billion Bibles have been printed and the Bible is the most read book in the world.
If you read one book a week, starting at the age of 5, and live to be 80, you will have read a grand total of 3,900 books, a little over one-tenth of 1 percent of the books currently in print.
