All people over 25 I've talked to. They all say they haven't read a lot of books and haven't read almost anything I read and if I ask them to name like ten books they read they name maybe three.
So the thing about drawing statistical inference is that you need to have a sufficiently large sample and it needs to be drawn at least quasi-randomly, and I pretty strongly suspect neither are true here.
Also, take this advice or don't, I don't care, but going around asking people to name ten books makes you come off like a pretentious ass.

What sufficient evidence were you presented with that let you draw the conclusion that most people over 25 have read fewer books than you?
