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 have finished many ~400 page novels in around 5 hours. In High School I read an average of 2 books a week, but during the summer I often got up to 5 a week. I calculated it in class once and I read about 100 pages/hour. Now I would say I read about 60 pages/hour, but that could be explained by choosing more mature books or books with smaller fonts. Once I started reading adult fiction instead of YA I noticed a difference in the fonts.
