    Last night I was curious about how much I read, and I made a list of all the books I have read this year. If I have not forgotten any, I have read only 3 books so far.. :eek: not too much

    How much do people read, anyway?

    What kind of book do you prefer to read?

    I read ~ 3 books a week.. But I was born with speed reading skills.

    I read action/thriller, a lot of sci-fi, management and business, military, history and leadership..

    I've not read a book this year :S

    The only books I really read are Poker books, and the very occasional book on maths or otherwise-gambling related.

    Usually one every week or two. I like books of all genres - except science fiction.

    Never been much of a reader, in fact I can't remember the last time I read a book. Much prefer doing puzzles in my spare time.

    < 1 as I suppose Dilbert Books do not count :eek:

    my wife on the other hand, I bet she rips through 20 or more in a given year. if she finds a good one, I might as well tell her: see you in 3 days! :) :)
