Im just started reading , like picking up a book and reading it from finish to end , not getting forced by school or anything , im really addicted to Dan Brown books

The most i read in a day , was prolly 200 or so pages max, took about 3 hours and a bit
I love love love dan brown books. His books i read two of them in two days. I will finish a book in a day if i llike it, that is why there are food smudges through all of my books. the most i prolly read was 2 harry potter books in a day approx 1000 pages. Im not a nerd,.......seriously

I usually take a book in 100 page slots although those hardcover books take longer, like great expectations. Yea reading is mad, try and read a novel in a week or two, really broadens concepts of the world as well as vocab ^_^ always good for essays

i don't actually keep track so i don't know. but when i strat a book, i usually read the whole thing from start to finish, even if it means reading through the night [but obviously not through the night into morning morning, like not until 5am or something]. i guess i'm just weird like that. but i haven't been able to read much lately, i'm too preoccupied with other stuff, especially since i'm so behind in all my subjects already - and it's only term one....how will i manage the coming yr?? i feel like panicking now...but i cant be bothered doing anything about it....so i'm jsut slipping further and further away....ok, welll that has nothing to do with how many pages i've read in one night. shrug.

I read the 4th Harry Potter book in 10 hours. It was on a long car trip home after christmas. I cant read much in the car though, i get carsick, so normally it might have taken me 6 hours or so.

I just read Sean William's Books of the Cataclysm, and I haven't done so much reading in yonks. Don't know the last series that had me reading 200-300 pages a day for so many days in a row. <3

Not entirely sure. Probably around the 1000-1200 page mark.

I've finished entire books on plane flights but that's about it... that's the only time I ever read anymore.

New rule: Harry Potter doesn't count. Everyone reads those in one hit on the day it's released.

This is true.

I'm quite capable of knocking over any of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time books in a day, when I have the time to do so. The one I'm reading at the moment has 1010 pages, not counting the glossary, and it's in size 9 font.

With uni, I've been reading one every 10-14 days or so.

After reading HP and VC Andrews i started reading faster.

I read around 700 words in 4- 6 hours. But thats only if the book is interesting. And i only know one person who reads as fast as i do.

With uni I read a hell of a lot more novels than I do in the holidays. :p
