This could be scary

Ganked from Naked Without Books!.

1. On average, how many books do you read in a month? I read 10 in the last three weeks, so I guess that's a safe number. Course, that's not counting the magazines or journal articles I read, either.

2. On average, how many books do you read in a year? Well, if you multiply, that's 120. How nice that I picked an easy number to work with.

3. How many books have you read in the last 5 years? Alright, 120x5 is 600. Jeebus.

4. How many books have you read in the last 10 years? 1200 books? Aggh. This is why I have no extra cash. It all goes to Borders.

How about you? Anyone else as addicted as I am?

Before college and the subsequent loss of all free time, I read approximately a book every other day (so, 15ish per month). Of course, many, if not most, were YA, but still. Definitely at least as addicted as you. ^_^

I am totally going to read starting May 10th. I borrowed two books from our friend Gina in Boston while we were there, and I'm trying to start a list of books I should read. I have all of English-language contemporary literature to explore!

Before work, I read roughly about that much (Cripes!)

Now that I have to scrounge for free time, I probably read one book in two weeks. Which means 2 a month.. 24 books a year.

In the last 5 years? Wow. Probably about a hundred. Maybe more.

Ten years? HOLY moley. I don't think I can even fathom the number of books I've read in all this time!
