In a good day, I can read 250 wpm. How many years could this or any similar chart take me reading one or two hours a day? The rest of the day I'm doing stem stuff.

Holy fucking Reddit. The whole point of reading those books is thinking not adding books read to your Goodreads.

i'd say 2 to 3 years, it's 28 books, more than a month to read each one is enough

how much would you say should i spend per page on these?

I started this chart in July 2018 and have read it on and off since, finishing around 1 row per year. I'm just started Das Kapital and plan on finishing it by July.
Speedreading is retarded but if you read more consistently than me it would probably take 2-3 years. I don't think it's worth spending more than 2 hours per day though, you'd probably lose retention.

>>19771881
It's missing a lot of things, like any relevant cultural works.

Whatever is necessary to understand it. I usually figure that I can read something like this at a rate of ~20 pages/hr.

The exact duration would be 5.23 minutes, not one second more or less.

it's hard to run a tight schedule like that, guys

>>19776326
Reading theory on a tight schedule is a terrible idea, at least if your main goal is to gain an actual understanding to inform further thinking.
