jane, you read 600 pages per day? as i mentioned about a book contains 200 pages  not less and if you read 3 books per day,it is really good to see sb like you here.according to UNESCO you should read 50 million words per year or at least two books per month to be considered a cultured person and i think jane is the only one here,good

mm I dont count but usually it's a 200-600 pages per book..

it's just because I'm a nerd sweetg4u ;) reading is my habit..

I can't stop reading a book until I finished the whole book and sometimes it takes 4-5 hours in a row lol but I don't mind I like reading :)

 Joe: I like both fiction and non fiction and I never really have a fixed portion of the books I want to read.

I spent most of my money on clothes and books Laughing

How about you, sweet? ;)

Erm per month? Depends, you can't define a book as something longer than 200 pages though.
Some of the classics are no more than 100-150, perhaps less.

Generally I'd say 1 or two a week.

Though I'm reading 'The Tale of Genji' at moment, all 1000+ pages of it.

So only 1 this month, haha ^^
