How many books do you read at once? I read 20 pages from 10 books every day.

I only read one book at once but I leave so many unfinished that I might return to in the future that I could be reading dozens at once depending on your definition of reading at once

>> No.18963747

One fiction and sometimes one non-fiction at the same time. Unless I really hate a novel I'll stick with it without alternating.

That's a very based idea.
It's like the polygamy of reading.

20 books, 1 page each per day, for a total of the /lit/ Standard 20 pages per day.

I read 1 page from 100 books per day OP

1 word a day from 250 books, not counting articles like "the", "a", "an", etc.

I have a large bookshelf with about 250 books in it and every day at 9PM I sit down and start from top left to bottom right, one at a time, takes me about 45 minutes

lmao what a waste of time, I bet you think you're so superior to everyone else by holding all that useless information in your head

I read the title of 800 books every day. I'm currently teaching myself Sanskrit so I can read the titles of every Upanishad.

Usually three: one novel, one nonfiction, poetry. Plus the occasional paper or academic articles I find on the web.

You're wasting your time. Learn to play the flute or pick up juggling. Get a hobby.

>> No.18967300

That's not very efficient. Think of the time your wasting by switching books. Think of the physical burden that 10 books brings. Even if you don't have to go around in public with these books, it will make your room messy, and JBP won't like that.

One + the Bible rigth now. Sometimes I read two, one of which is smut, but I try not to do that.
