On a regular day I read about 50. On a good day, I will read 100 or more.

Depending on what is going on, I think I am about the same as you. 25-50 per commute and therefore 50-100 per day!

If I have the time and I like the book I usually read 100 pages but if that's not possible, I try to read at least 10.

I would estimate that I read approximately 400 - 500 pages a day on most days. Obviously reading is my favorite activity...!

Maybe 30 pages a day. I would read more but my job is very demanding these days. On my time off I will be reading a lot more frequently because I have a two week vacation coming up.

That is hard to figure out. 200-400+ on a good day. 50-100 on a light day.

If I have time, I can read up to 50-60 pages with great focus. Normally, I read 20 on average every day.

I try to finish a book in a day but when I can't I try to read around 50 to a hundred pages. But if I could just read all day everyday that would be heaven.

I try to read 1-2 hours, so that is 50- 120 pages on average. It also depends on the time of day, chapter length, and amount of interest. I have some days where I can read 8 hrs or finish books in one sitting.

I have no idea! It's variable depending on the book, if it's a weekday or the weekend or if I'm on holiday or have some spare time on my hands.
I can read a thick book in a weekend or take two weeks to get through a short one.

I read around seven hundred pages everyday. However, I can read even a thousand pages. I have been reading a lot since decades.
