The three pie charts illustrate the distribution of book sales across five categories—adult fiction, children’s fiction, biography, travel, and others—in 1972, 1992, and 2012.

Overall, adult fiction increased substantially to become the dominant category by 2012, while biography and travel declined over time. In contrast, children’s fiction rose moderately, whereas the proportion of other books decreased steadily.

In 1972, sales were relatively evenly distributed, with “others” accounting for the largest share at 25%. Adult fiction represented 20%, equal to children’s fiction and biography, while travel made up the smallest proportion at 15%. By 1992, adult fiction had risen to 25%, becoming the leading category. Children’s fiction also increased slightly to 22%, whereas biography fell to 15%. Travel edged up to 18%, while the share of other books declined to 20%.

By 2012, adult fiction had grown markedly to 45%, far exceeding all other categories. Children’s fiction continued its upward trend, reaching 25%. In contrast, biography dropped sharply to just 8%, and travel decreased to 10%. The proportion of other books also fell significantly to 12%, indicating a clear shift in consumer preferences toward fiction, particularly adult titles.
