We are used to seeing girls with novels and monthly magazines, but have we ever acknowledged<em> boys reading books?<\/em> I guess not. This aspect of reading circle is often overlooked. Hence, people forget that some of the greatest authors of all time are men. Whether it is Sophocles\u2019 <i>Theban Plays, <\/i>Shakespeare\u2019s <i>Romeo Juliet, <\/i>Milton\u2019s <i>Paradise Lost <\/i>or everyone\u2019s favourite John Green, author to our most precious <i>The Fault in our Stars, <\/i>we can not deny the contribution of men in literature. So how come they do not make up the majority of the reading pool.
