BOOK BLOGGER HOP | HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE ME TO FINISH A BOOK?

This week’s prompt: How many days does it usually take you to finish reading a book?

Well that’s me put on the spot! I’d say this varies a lot. There are some books that I read in print and only get to occasionally. Sometimes I’ll read a few pages a night, others a few pages a week. Sometimes I put it down for a while and don’t read any. So these books can take any length of time, if indeed I finish them at all. Audiobooks, on the other hand, I usually do get through much faster. If I’m on a tear I can finish a book in a day, sometimes more than one. I have been known to get through ten books in a week I think. But then there are also times of year I don’t read at all. So I think if I had to average it out, I probably read one and a bit books per week through the year, but as to how long it takes me to finish one…. that very much depends.

Does anyone out there know exactly how long it takes to finish a book? Anyone else have widely variable times?
