Well I was just pondering when I thought how fast do people read books. I read the cradle series last month in under 13 days. Constantly binge reading it. I have alot of time so it didn’t seem a big deal. Then I remembered in 2019 when I first picked up WoT I followed many people who were reading for the first time or reading it and I discovered it took most of them a year or so and I read it in under 4 Months. That time I was doing my last year in college and had many exams.
I read the second half of life of pi in almost 1 sitting. Im a substitute teacher, and often i dont need to actually do anything. I walked into that school like 150 pages into the book and i left with it finished. I was entranced. A couple weeks ago I finished reading Washington Black by Esi Edugyan in one sitting, and i think that was over 250 pages in one go. It was the first time in a while i had devoured a book like that
