Probably four, if we are talking full-length novels. That was a good week! :)

When I'm on break and have nothing else to do, I can read up to 2 books a day. I think the most I've read is about 8 (maybe more) books a week. And, haha, my friends think I read too much and pretty much implied that I should get a life.

Hello everyone!

This was a tricky answer because I had to choose between how many audio books I listened too or how many books I read. So I'll answer both, first the most books I read in one week was 10. Before your jaws drop these books were fairly short because it was the Cirque du Freak series. They were so amazing and had a plot the really dragged you in that you couldn't put the book down until you finished it, I had to go to three different libraries to get to the next book because the need to know the ending was just too strong. I definitely recommend reading them.

The most books I listened to in a week would be three and as the Infernal Devices series. Also an amazing collection I was older when I read them and instead of having nothing to do during my high school spring break I had a busy week of working two jobs and other adult stuff so being able to listen to these while I was driving, working, running errands and cleaning was a god send. My life has been truly changed by audio books and I am still amazed at how fast I can get through a book with them.

I read "The Lord of the Rings" series on a weekend, and I can read a book in 1-2 days, depending on how much time I have.

I have done 6 in a week. A few months ago, I was able to read 2 books on any given day. I tried to read a new book everyday. Now, I take care of my elderly mom with lung cancer, so I don't have time to read most days. Mom is first priority now.

I think it was six books. I could have reached seven, but I paused and tried to see if I could recall everything I'd read the entire week.
