When you say you read one book a week what does that actually mean? Theres a huge difference between reading werther (150 pages) which you could accidentally do in an afternoon, and les miserables (which is well over 1000 pages), so how maybe pages per week are you supposed to be reading?
Pick a book, divide the pages by 7, then rinish those pages by the end of the day
>>25349722>pick in search of lost time>have to read 600 pages per day
>>25349693I simply go outside with a book and put on a 2 hour timer then read either until the alarm rings or I get so unfocused that I cant keep going. Page count is a meme.
>>25349693does it matter? 1 book is 1 book.
>>25349693It’s a meaningless quantification of reading habits. Yes a bigger book will usually take longer, but a 1000 page novel could potentially take you less time than a dense philosophical text only 300 pages long.
>>25349693>so how maybe pages per week are you supposed to be reading?All the pages in a single book.
You can read more books if you comically reduce them to the most absurd degreeFor instance>the sorrows of young werther: boohoo some chick doesn't like me I'm going to kill myself>infinite jest: dude television is like a prison dude >blood meridian: dude le wild west was le violent
>>25349693when you read one book a week you're trying to impress people. You think reading is a numbers game, or a competition. You probably identify yourself as "a reader" and take pride in it because that's your one thing in life. I'm not impressed by how fast people read or how much they read. I'd be impressed if someone read a single book and could tell me something about it other than the a basic plot summary. That's all these "book a week" types can do. Spit out plot summaries.
