How many pages do you read on average in a day?

Post by Jolyon Trevelyan »

I assume sometimes you read more and sometimes you read less. But on average how many pages do you read in a day ?


I read about 25-30 pages on average in a day

I don't count, but around 50-100 pages depending on my time and on the book.

I read roughly 1,000 pages a month so I would say 30-35 pages a day.

On average, I'd say about fifty. It depends on how much free time I have, and on how engaging the book is.

I try to at least read 50-100 pages a day. Sometimes I read more if the book is really good. :D

If the book is really good and I have loads of free time, I could read a book in a few hours. But generally, I read about 100 pages per day.

I read about 40-50 pages a day as well. If there is a chunk of time that I can read (like school vacations), I can read 100-150 pages a day. Love reading!

20 or so on an average day, but if I'm really into a book you could triple or quadruple that estimate.

On days I read, it's usually over 50 and sometimes over 100 if I really like the book.

I don't usually keep track either, but I would say on average 50 to 100 pages a day. (Especially if I have plenty of time.)

I would say 50-75, as I read multiple books at one time, so I will read a chapter or two in each book and then focus on whatever one caught my attention the most that particular day.
