How many books do your read per week?? I usually manage to read just one per week, though if the books are thin - I may even read two books. How many do you do?


message 2: by Anoop (new)

Anoop Pai B (anooppai) normally two. but if i get a weeks leave i can read 3-4!


message 3: by Zarnain (new)

Zarnain Khan | 8 comments I guess one book per week...depends on the size and how interested i am in the book so far. Currently due to engineering it takes me months to finish a book :P unless its holidays....


message 4: by Cath (new)

Cath (cathastrophic) It always depends on my schedules... During the busy months (May to september) I might get one book done within 2 or 3 weeks... but when it'e the dead months (January to May) I can easily go through 2 per week. I always try to have adleast an hour of read before sleeping every day adleast when I'm super busy

The average is two. But I might read 3 to 4 if I find the time. It also depends on the book.

message 27: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Ramirez (melissaramirez) | 241 comments Anywhere from 1 book a week (usually happens if the book is long, or super involved) to 3 or 4 books, if I'm not busy.

For a classic of considerable length, I'd probably allow up to a month, depending on my level of interest in the book. I usually start classic books with all this excitement, and then it sometimes falters as I continue reading.

However, all bets are off, if I happen to be busy. I sometimes take breaks for weeks at a time - which I really hate to do - but sometimes I have no choice. :(


message 28: by Jeanna (new)

Jeanna Roberts | 35 comments i normally average anywhere from 3-5 books a week. Keep in mind though, i am a stay at home, full time mommy.


message 29: by Dominique (new)

Dominique For me it depends, 3-4 but if I have a busy week I read 2


message 30: by fureshiiness (new)

fureshiiness | 194 comments Because I'm always busy I average 1-2 per week. But there are weeks I can't read anything at all. ;(


message 31: by Autumn ♥ (new)

Autumn ♥ (autumnruth19) | 2 comments I read about 3-4 books per week.


message 32: by [deleted user] (new)

Depending on the size of each book, I can generally read 3-4 per week.


message 33: by Deanna (new)

Deanna (anovelglimpse) Depending on the week and what's going on, I probably average about 3. Maybe more sometimes.


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) Typically two to three, but wanting to get the number up to around four to five consistently (depending on the length)


message 35: by Satu (new)

Satu (sadun) | 68 comments Depends. Sometimes none, sometimes about 2-4. Depending how busy I am or how hard it is to concentrate on anything. When having trouble concentrating, book reading is impossible. Like this february I only finished one book.


message 36: by Arbaaz (new)

Arbaaz Khan (arbaazkhan1999) | 588 comments I read the whole divergent series in a month! The two took me almost a week.


message 37: by Michael (new)

Michael (micky74007) Since I retired, I read between two and three a week. When I was working I'd be lucky to get that much in a month. I love being retired.


message 38: by Aritri (last edited May 04, 2015 07:56AM) (new)

Aritri | 337 comments That depends on the volume of the book, whether I'm getting a free week or not and whether the book is interesting. And may be also on some other minor factors. Any way, if I get a whole week only for reading, the book is of 300-400 pages, AND the book is interesting ('can't stop reading until I finish it' kind of interesting), then I can read 3-5 books in a week. I read The Hunger Games trilogy in 5 days.


message 39: by Arbaaz (new)

Arbaaz Khan (arbaazkhan1999) | 588 comments Wow, five freaking day is a big achievement.

message 41: by Deanna (new)

Deanna (anovelglimpse) I probably read about three, I think.


message 42: by Lian (new)

Lian (liansverden) | 9 comments It really depends. Sometimes it can take months before I pick up another book. During the last five days or so I've read three and I'm starting another one later tonight. It really depends on my mood and how much work I have.


message 43: by Romaissa (new)

Romaissa It depends on the book, but usually one book per week


message 44: by Jojobean (new)

Jojobean Usually 1-2 books per week. more if they are under 200 pgs

message 47: by Sera (new)

Sera | 71 comments Usually between 5-10 books a week depending on what I have going on. I usually read 1 book a day sometimes 2 if I have the time.
