I start off with the full intentions of finishing the book but I forget about the book for long periods of time making me forget what lead up to my book mark making me start the book all over. It’s a constant cycle

Mostly I read about 3-4h on a full book. At once. But since I often don’t have that much time. I have to split it up. Therefore the actual reading time takes about 5-6h

It depends on the book. Even if a book isn’t very interesting, I try to push myself through because maybe, at a later point in the book, things will start getting interesting. Also, I’m a high school student, so I don’t always have much time to do some reading, which is why it usually takes me about a week to finish a Percy Jackson book. Other books may take longer or shorter periods of time, but Percy Jackson books usually take me about a week to finish because of school and homework and my daily life.

It depends on if the book is a chapter book or if it is a Picture book if I’m reading a Picture book it takes me about 15 to 20 mins if I’m Reading a chapter book it will take me about like five days to a week

I usually finish books by 1-3 months because I like overanalyzing things and taking my time, although it is quite hard to keep up with deadlines for book reports and what not.

Well if I never heard of it before it will take about 2 to 3 hours. But if I heard of it about 1-2hours. Thanks for the question hope you’re ok💜

It usually takes me a week maybe two to finish a book, depending on how long the book is and how much time I spend reading. I recommend around an hour- an hour and a half each day.

Depending on the book itself, it may take me a few hours or a few months. But there are quite a few factors that go into reading a book like the length or whether i like the book or not.

Depends on the size and topic. Large fantasy books that I get consumed with take me only a few days. I don’t know that I’ve ever finished a short non-fiction/self help book. Short books I really like take me a few days too.
