S/O How many books do you read at once vs. how many you read each year

So we discussed how many books you read at once, and I'm wondering if there's any correlation between reading more or less books at a time and overall reading.  So, for the sake of science

1) How many books do you read at once?

2) How many books do you read a year?

Re: S/O How many books do you read at once vs. how many you read each year

  • 1.)  1-2 books at a time

    2.)  About 100 on average.

  • 2-3 at a time; between 60 and over 100. It totally depends on what that year has going on and how long or difficult my books are.

  • 1) How many books do you read at once? One, 99% of the time.

    2) How many books do you read a year? This year doesn't count because grad school/moving/family problems. But typically I average 50-60 a year.

  • I'd say that I have usually 3 books going (kindle, library ebook, and physical library). Sometimes more if something just isn't holding my attention.

    I read close to 200 every year.

  • I typically read only one physical book at a time. On top of that, I usually listen to 1-2 audiobooks. With Mockingjay coming out soon, I started listening to that on top of the 2 audiobooks I have going. When i have a cd audiobook from the library, it stays in my car and then I try to get an mp3 audiobook for walking and other activities. Right now, I have 4 books going! It's a bit much.

    I usually read about 75 books a year

    2014 Reading Goal: 85

  • I usually read 2 at a time, 1 audiobook, 1 paper/ebook.  Occasionally I will add an additional paper or ebook, but that's usually only if I'm reading a book for a group or occasionally I will read some kind of Christian nonfiction at the same time as two other books.

    I average around 90 to 100 per year but I am on the low end of that this year and will probably be more around 80.
