      Fastest You Have Read a book

      The fastest i have read a book with a decent amount of pages was 2 days.

      The fastest was when i read like a 3rd grade level book in an hour.

      Wow 2 days, the best I've did is like a month. I'm a slow reader plus I rarely ever read anymore. I have a friend that went through 3 books in less than a week however.

      I can't remember if it was New Moon or Eclipse... but I ended up finishing it in about 11 hours.

      That's not a couple of hours.


      I didn't count the hours it took, unfortunately, but I've read HP5-7 in one day intervals. I'll just read them again and see how many hours it takes..

      A book of 327 pages in 2-3 hours. It was pretty cool, but kind of creepy

      I read about a hundred pages an hour, faster if it's lighter reading. So I can finish most decent-sized books in 3-4 hours if I want to retain everything.
