How many pages do you read a day? Be honest.

>> No.18976236

Depends on what I’m reading and how busy I am. Recently only about 20 pages a day

>> No.18976242

>>18976229
Depends on the type of book.
If it's pulp genre fiction I can read a 300p book in half an afternoon.
If it's something heavier like philosophy or well crafted lit it's often a chapter a day and then I put the book down.

During the summer? Maybe 100 pages of an easily digestible book or 20ish pages of a very dense book.

During the academic year, I'll maybe clock in 50-60 pages a day on the weekend and just a few pages here and there during the work week. This is reading outside of my studies, which involve spending a few hours digesting a paragraph or two.

Depends on the day and how busy I am. If I'm not busy I read somewhere between 300-350 pages a day but otherwise I always try to get at least 50 pages done. If I read some hard to grasp philosophy my brain fries after 20-30 pages.
