Are in college? Have been to college? Have you completed college?

The reason why I ask these questions is because most of who have graduated college are used to reading 100+ pages of material every week. For some majors its 300+ pages a week. In short, we develop a disciple to be able to sit for long periods of time and read; often making mental checkpoints.

I often evaluate the number of pages, look at my open availability to read, and immediately create a reading schedule. If the book is 300 pages, my goal is 4 days (75 pages a day). This allows for me to engage the book and finish it within a workable time frame so I don't forget plots, characters, events, names, ext, ext.

However, it sounds like you are not an efficient reader yet. I suggest you stick to short stories until you develop your reading skills.
