Some people read books one chapter at the time, enjoying the book without stressing to get to the end. Others, like me, reads the whole night if the find a book they like.
Luckily I'm a fast reader so if I don't have other things to do I'll finish a book in an evening (possibly night).
What kind of reader are you? And what do you read? Magazines, books, blogs, only mylot-posts?

If I really like a book I finish it in one day or two days. Sometimes I read late all night. Books that are less interesting take me much longer to finish, so it really depends on the book. I read books, magazines, newspapers and things online. I love reading, and I couldn't imagine a life without books.

@Torunn I get a lot of my books from the library, and I don't finish all of them. Sometimes I try to give the book a chance because I am hoping that it will get better. If I still don't like it, I often choose to return it to the library without reading the rest it.

@Porcospino I have some books I've bought, started and never finished. They're around here somewhere, I should find them and donate them. Maybe someone else want to read them.

I read all sorts of things. I usually take a book along with me wherever I go. Sometimes I get through a book in a day. Other times, two, unless it's really thick.

It really depends on the book, if it is one I really like, I will it almost continually until I am done, if it is one that is kind of slow I will just read when I feel like it.

I read pretty fast I suppose. Last year I read over 60 books. This year I doubt I'll read that much. Largely becaue they closed the branch of the library closest to me.
I read mainly on my lunch break at wor (30 mins) or during my hot bath therapy at night (30 min to as long as 3 hours) I like fictional books the most. Horror, thriller, mystery. Teen fiction too. I read a lot of different genres. I do read magazines, blogs, facebook, mylot posts too...that's outside of my book reading.

60 books a year is great!
Closing library is just sad :-/ Do they have an option for renting things online? Or book-bus?
I think what they're doing in Norway is that they cooperate with schools so everyone can borrow books at school libraries, and also order from other libraries. That works pretty well.
