>>2019936151 I think. Doom scrolling is too addictive.
>>201993615Doesnt really say much without a definition of what counts as "book".5 short 120 pages novelettes are less reading than a single 800 pages novel. Also not clear if this includes academic or just artistic literature.
>>201993695The Romanian of Raleigh.

>>201994136You should get /litfit/ since you have all the free time in the world
>>201993615I thought Italians were all well read and super cultured.
>>201997479Alta Italia bros, comments?
>>201997479>>201997821you don't need to overdo it.countries high in the list are tryhards overcompensating for something
>>201998004I don't think the Swiss read books as "cope"
>>201998123they are>rains all the time>can't make any noise without getting the gestapo called on youreading is all they have and they overdo it
>>201993615someone borrowed me a rare signed edition of a book, it was multiple stories or legends of the 24th of december, it talked about napoleon bonaparte and beliefs like baby jesus in the manger or whatever, i read like 69 pages and it started to bore me. It was from the XIXth century I think.
>>201998123I heard we read most physical books in the Badi, most Badis have a little library where you can lend books if you don't have your own.
>>201998423Sounds comfy. You can't suffer in Switzerland
>>201998004>>201998308And then you wonder why we use so many Italians for menial jobs here.
>>201993615>How many books did you read in the last year in your country?About 25-30 me thinks
>>201998697there's goybuck chasing tards everywhere, good thing you took them away from here
>>201993615The amount of books read is indicative of anything. The type of books read is more important. Reading 100 books of slop is worth less than reading classics, literature, and technical books. Yes I am an elitist.
>>201998801Than reading 1 book from the classics, literature, and technical books*
>>201993615About 7, if we count Light Novels several dozen.
>>201998351Sounds like it might be a good read. Do you know it's name?
Not too long ago, gamefaq did did a similar poll.https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/9668-have-you-read-a-book-in-the-past-yearIntresting how over the years, there are less and less readers.
>>201998987I don't remember, it was back in June
>>201993615We live in the golden age for reading, just get an e-reader and you basically have an endless supply of books for free, on a small machine
>26%mogged ye all again lmao
>>202000212?
>>202000715Ireland is the 2nd highest in 10 books or more. Only you Swiss mog
>>201993615Wtf? Lithuanians can read?
>>201993615up to 5-9 I believe. We'll see if i can manage more than 10, not one of those speed readers so it takes me a while.
>>201993615About 16. I read novels on the toilet for about 20 mins every morning and non fiction in the day or evening so not even that much and would read more if I didn't play games so much.
>>202001176>I read novels on the toilet
>>201998963Light novels like "young adult literature"?
If graphic novels count then I read over 30 books last year.
People who read loads of books per year are reading slop. Real books require effort and thought. They can't be read like a Harry Potter or Steven King book.
>>201994631Norm Macdonald’s memoir
Just 1 actual book, the autobiography of Fukuzawa Yukichi
>>202002708I read about 30-40 novels per year, mostly 19th century stuff (realism/naturalism) and german post war stuff. Reading and concentration ain't that hard when you do it on a regular basis.
>>202003735Which war?
