This week’s Book Blogger Hop question: How long does it normally take you to read a book?
It…varies wildly? For a short book on a good reading day, I could finish in a day. More typically, I’d say a book runs three days to a week. Three days used to be more the average, but my new job has cut into my reading time. About the longest I ever spend on a book is two weeks (Les Miserables and Gone with the Wind). If I spend too long on one book, even a good one, I get bored with it and itch to move on. Because there are so many other books to read!
You read fast! It takes me at least two weeks to finish a book, sometimes more. I don’t get a lot of time to read, but I try to read a little every day. I also keep track of all the books I’ve read in the year on a list in the “Notes” app on my cell phone, arranged by month. It’s fun to go back and see how many and what kinds I’ve read at the end of each year.
