1. Answer the poll.

2. How much of it is on your own accord? (i.e. how many of these books do you personally want to read vs mandatory academic reading?)

3. How much free time do you have per week? Are you in full-time employment or a full-time student?

4. How much time do you devote to reading each day?


A1) Vote casted

A2) I have books to study so any time I find myself in the zone. And most of these books help me with my work

A3) Full-time. I don't think i have such thing as "free time". There is always list of things I should look into/learn/work. I guess I have some sort of liberty to decide what I can do whenever I want.

A4) I spend 1 hour travelling which is were most kindle-reading happens. I read a lot on bloomberg and the pdfs i receive via mails. But that's nothing I particularly enjoy.

Depends on the kind of book.
Usually if it's an Ebook it's between 250 to 400 pages. If the story is quiet good it takes two days to finish.
However I read multiple books at once. So per week I finish about 3. But I could have started reading them weeks prior to now. :smile:
I can't explain how I do it. I started YEARS AGO when I was still in year 10 (2010) and I must have started initially with 5 books or so at once or something to get to where I am.
Apparently talking to people I know, I'm not the only one that habit/system.

It was complimenting you on spending your time wisely. (I say that with sarcasm but I genuinely admire people who read a lot of books.)

It's not the first time, your internet blocks everything. :cute: Are you even allowed to access TSR at school?

I am now...
I read one, sometimes two books per day, so about 10 a week. What can I say, not everyone can be as smart as me. :smug:

a couple of years ago I read harry potter and the order of the phoenix in 4 days...
Nowhere near as I used to. I once read 200,000 words (of one book) in one day when I was 8 or 9, but now I don't read as much. I'm more focused on writing.
