And while we're here, how quick of a reader are you?

For the past five or so years, I have only read 4-5. This year, my goal is to read 20 books. I got 6 down. Speed isn't an issue, I am a very fast reader. I just have to get myself interested in them.

About a hundred. I try to read a book a day.

I read about 40-45 books a year, and though some of them are definitely on the short side (poetry etc.), there's usually few bricks in there as well.

I try to re-read Night Watch every year on the May 25th. This year it took me about 3½ hours. Obviously re-reads are always faster and Pratchett's work is definitely not on the heaviest side. I'm still pretty fast.

About 6-7 depending on what has grabbed me, not the most but I'm happy enough with that.

About 85-100 give or take, I'd say. Sometimes I have comic or manga phases and then it's a bit less.

If it's YA and I have time for reading, I usually finish the book within a day or two maximum, same with adult novels with around 300 pages. 500+ pages it's usually 3-4 days. It really all depends on my work schedule. If I enjoy a book, I finish it in less than a week no matter what. So I guess I'm not the fastest, but pretty fast overall?

Reading slumps suck, though. I just came out of one and now I need to choose my next book wisely as to not fall back into it.

Maybe 10-15, a mix of enjoyable children's literature, self-help books, and technical coursebooks.

I read over 200 last year.

And a quick reader, which is how I got all those books read.

I honestly have no idea. I don't get through as many books as I used to because I don't have as much free time, unfortunately. But I'm a fairly fast reader if we're talking your average fiction novel and not something ponderously literary or dry non-fiction. Definitely a couple books per week, minimum.

About 200 on average each year.

I can read really fast but I've never counted. Probably a very high number, I read a lot.

Through most of my twenties I was reading 40-50 books a year. The last few years I've only read maybe 5 books per year. At some point I'll probably go through a phase where I read more again, but I'm not worried about it either way. Right now I'm more into doing the most challenging logic puzzles I can find. And reading fanfic.

I'm a slow reader. 30-40 pages an hour has always been my average speed, regardless of whether I'm reading Gravity's Rainbow or Twilight.

20? 25? I'm always in the middle of multiple books but I'm slow.

I'm a fast reader. I can read a couple hundred or so pages in an hour. that being said, I do a lot less fun reading than I used to given that I do a lot of reading for my career. Probably read 30 to 40 books a year right now.

Um. Wow. If i just sit down and read, I can read almost any book in a day. Anything over about 400 pages is going to take a couple. I read probably 200 books a year? Since I can't read (books) at work. Never really counted.

Probably around 100? I'm a fast reader and I read a lot of cozy mysteries, which aren't really long reads, so it's not unusual for me to get through three or four of them in a weekend.

Average 50 but some years it is 23 and some years it is 100. Depends how my health is.

I used to read anywhere from 50-100 books a year when I started with Bookcrosing over 15 years ago. Now I barely crack 30.

*BookcrosSing. Damn typo!*
