How long are the books? What else does she do in her life?

I'm not employed, and I only manage two books a week, sometimes fewer.

Some weeks I finish three books, then it will take me a couple of weeks to finish just one. Last year I read 91 books. I keep a book list, and the last couple of years I've been doing a small synopsis or my reaction to each book. It's helpful when I go back to see exactly what I've read, or if I want to recommend a book to someone.

Most years close to 11/month.

But then I acted in four plays, ran tech for three others, so rehearsal ate up more than a little time.

Chances are she could read about 830 again and they will seem new for about half the book.

Even in my prime I don't think I ever exceeded 8 books in a week. And yes my school work suffered.

are the lengthy novels or non-fiction that makes up my list. I rarely read anything that comes in under 300 pages, and a good half of them are 500 plus pages. I mean, good for her, and it would be tragic if she ever lost the reading urge, but I could read three books a day if I were reading the ones she's reading.

Oh, and I do enjoy a good YA, and they go fast, which is also why I like them.

This particular summer was devoted to reading..at night..all night (found some of my father's erotic books that summer). I purchased 1/2 dozen lemons each day for a snack, and ate it like an orange, but I ate the skin and all!

It was summer vacation when I was in high school...took one whole night and most of the next day. It was one of those books that you could NOT put down
