The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term.

According to a Pew Research Center survey on book consumption and book formats, 191 million e-books were sold in the United States in 2020. The preference of individuals to buy books online is majorly due to the broad choice, cost savings due to offers and discounts, and convenience of buying anytime and from any location. Therefore, online shopping of books is boosting the fiction book market. The change in the reading habits of people is expected to hamper the growth of fiction books markets. The preferences towards other entertainment means like videos, streaming platforms, gaming, and television have caused a decline in the number of people reading books and an increase in time spent on other means. For instance, in the Digital media trends survey, 14th edition, nearly 80% of people in the USA have subscribed to at least one paid online streaming video service. The statistics indicate a wider acceptance of online streaming services among individuals. Thus, online streaming channels created a low interest in reading books which further acts as a hindrance to fictional books’ market growth. Increasing focus on technology and new product development is a key trend in the fictional books market. The publishers and writers are continuously focusing on introducing innovations to increase sales, outreach, and to ease their writing and publishing activities.
