Usually I finish around two to three books a month, and it's slightly less now that school has started again. I do a lot more reading online than in book form. So, what about you guys?

On average i would say i read about five a month. Sometimes its more and sometimes its less depending on the size of the book.

Ideally I soak up on books whenever I get some spare time. In a month I normally read two to three books. Reading online is something which I have not got much used to as I prefer to have the book in my hand and get real comfy which I cannot if I am reading online.

Well in a month I think that I could read three to four books a month. Right now that school has started I don't read as much like when I'm on vacation. But when I don't have school I tend to read around three to four because I have other suff to do and then there are the rare occasions that I am able to read around five books in a month.

...It depends on the book. If it is a short one, I can read several in a month. If it is a novel with close to 1000 pages, two to three per month. i enjoy reading before I go to bed and while I'm at one of my jobs that has a lot of down time. ...Fun thread. Thanks for asking. Have a great day and peace be with you. =(^;^)= Della

At the moment I think that I am reading about 2 books a month. I have so little time that I just cannot get much time to read at all. I love to read as well so it is a little frustrating that I can not find more time for it. I do not think that I will ever get into this online reading, it really hurts my eyes and head when I concentrate on words on screen for too long. Plus I love to just pick up a book, get comfy and lose myself in pages!

I read an average of 5 books a week, so about 20 a month. I've had long term insomnia (about 15 years now) and only seem to need about 4-5 hours sleep a night and I get too bored with tv or movies so I read. If its a short book..400-700 pages I read at least one a day. I enjoy just about everything, except biographies, they usually just seem like bragging.

I only really get to read nonfiction books these days because I have a lot on my mind and I don't' really need to keep track of the plot. I finish about two or three a month right now.
