Possible - obviously (see: most novels under 200 pages). Worth it? Probably not. I'd give myself 2-3 days to actually read and comprehend the text, maybe more. For longer books it's out of the question imho.

You dont need to read whole book bro :) no one does that :) you just open a book, read a wise sentence amd ta dam you got iт;)?

Without speed reading, probably if you have the time.
With speed reading, certainly, but I don't count it as true reading, which demands time for contemplation.

yeah i have 37 books in my book account

Depending on the complexity of the book, yes. I wouldn't be surprised at someone reading a young adult novel in a day, even if they are in the target audience's intended age range.

And I have 37 dubs in my dubs account
And only 37 /lit/ posts in my /lit/ post account

KNAWLEDGE.

I knocked through the whole of Hear The Wing Sing in one day then the whole of Siddharta the next day, didn't really need to contemplate the former because it was shit and I needed something to wipe it from my mind. Both were ~120 pages though, so it's possible.

Bro everyone knows it's all about volume. Don't you wanna have a sweet lambo in your garage? Gotta get those numbers up.

It's not worth it from an enjoyment or learning standpoint because pretty much everyone retains a lot less after reading for 45 minutes straight. Might as well take it a little slower and actually absorb the material.

A book a week, give or take two and a half hours of dedicated reading a day (if you have the time to afford it), is a good goal to strive for.

A book a month should be the bare minimum.

Sometimes I do this and I can't see anything wrong with this (as mentioned before, under 200 pages). Reading slowly is more enjoyable, but so many books and so little time. When I see interesting pages/paragraphs I bookmark them and re-read them after finishing book(sometimes i spend 30minutes or so re-reading all bookmarked parts from many books). After a while i re-write liked bookmarked parts into notebook.

But all in all it depends on the book. Remember that one book that you spend weeks reading and got nothing from it.

>(if you have the time to afford it)

Yeah I've been doing a book a week. 300 page book takes me about 6 days. The quickest I've ever read a book was Solaris in 3 days. It was pretty short though. I don't even know why I read it so fast. It wasn't that good.

How long do you spend reading each day?

>>7824391
Looks like 1-2 hours

Honestly I don't really know. I usually read about 50 pages a day. I get home from work and read and chat with the gf and shit post all at the same time.

Someone get sebastian on the line.
