300-400 page books = 1 sitting for me or 2 months of hard core reading for chicks from va

god bless your soul. It depends on the depth of the material or the learning curve.

Strange thread considering there are about a million different variables when reading a book.

Most notably: How long the book is. How interesting/gripping the book is. How much spare time you can give to reading the book.

exactly my point Quality-Street

I want to know how these folks find the time to be reading these books so frequently when as you said there are many variables.

I read more than one book at a time. A chapter of one in the morning, a chapter of another at night.

read like a 100 pages a day, maybe more
now that the suns out, and its nice out, I'll bring my white ass outside during lunch, smoke a doob and read a book...get like 45-60 pages done in a hour, depending on the intensity of the action/mystery whatever is going down

a regular 200-300 page novel...depends... at times when i don't have a life (minimal homework & no partying) if only read after work i can finish a book in a couple days (or less than one day if it's a weekend)
if i have a lot of stuff going on it could take weeks
i think the fastest long book i read was Scarlett (sequel to gone with the wind, 896 pages) in about 4 days over a mid-winter break in hs... yeah cause i had the time to just sit on the couch and read without having to worry about work/homework

It depends. I read extremely fast (one of the things I'm good at). I usually read 2-3 books in a week, probably averaging 300-400 pages or so.
