Why is it so impossible to keep up a minimum 20 pages read a day routine? You'd have completed all those books you've been planning to read for years just this year if you had only stuck to it.

20 pages a day is no where near enough to read all of the /lit/ core books alone

Maybe my life is easier than yours, but I usually get through about 200 a day, so 20 seems easy to stick to. Just read a few hours at night and whenever you're on public transport, on break/lunch et cetera

I do. That's how I finished the Bible in 2 months.

Not him but how long does that usually take? Any tips?

The only time I read is immediately before I go to bed. How is it that hard?

I often read 200 pages a day, but usually because I read my books during the day, usually 50-250 pages depending on thebook and my mood, then when I'm in bed I read novellas/short stories/short works on my Kindle with dim lighting, usually another 50-100 pages a night. In my case it's just a matter of taking advantage of the opportunity.

It's not only possible. It's easy. I usually read at least 20 pages before I finish my coffee in the morning.

20 pages isn't shit dude. If you can't do that I don't know what to tell you. I aim for 100-150 a day.

If don't read at least 100 pages a day you should not even be posting here, buddy. 20 pages takes at max 40 minutes, you probably waste way more that that on social media or just going to (and coming back from) work/uni/whatever. It's easy.
