Religion book sales are down, according to a Christian Retailing report of Association of American Publishers (AAP) figures. AAP saw religion book sales decline by 25.5% in March – that’s a $47.6 million decrease. That’s just one month, but the year-long prospect isn’t so sunny either: so far religion book sales are down 12.1% for the year.

An initial reaction may be to attribute the decline to a general decrease in the purchasing of entertainment, as a result of a groaning economy. But don’t be so quick to judge. AAP reports a 23.1% sales increase for the year in adult paperback sales and a 58.9% increase for the month in e-book sales.

Perhaps religion book publishers just need to start putting their books online? After all, you’re getting your religion news here.
