The trick is to read multiple books at once. I usually have one fiction and one non-fiction. Best if they're different lengths as well. You get full of one, you move to the other. You finish one, it spurs you to finish the other and start another. I also find that choice paralysis is weakened when you know you have another book going and there is less shame when putting a book down because you're just picking up the other like planned.

@@cinemaatrium3863 I never said I absorb everything I read. 75% of the books I read are fluff, enjoyable, escapism. I get lost in the story, and when I close the covers as I read the last sentence, details are put aside for a general feeling of “kick ass author, with at least a 90% editor.” (Bad editing makes me drop a book after the 5th missed error, regardless of how good the story is.) I love reading books that are part of a story universe, but have to refresh my memory in each book of the characters. Bottom line, reading for me, is one of my happy places. For my daily books, I don’t read books where I have to skip parts because they are boring or I find the content thick or I have to slow my pace to absorb whats going on so I know what’s going on later. I read books with lots of witty, clever dialogue, fun dialogue, and happy story lines (life outside of books is messed up enough that I don’t want anything too messy in my moments I escape from it). That isn’t to say that avoid all conflict in books the other 25% of my reading slows me down greatly because I am invested in the story/topic, and the writing is more dense. Don’t judge profuse readers by whether they can retain details from every book. Celebrate them because they find joy in so many different books. Independently published authors need us to find and celebrate them. Casual readers will never give them the traction they need.

[@gabrielabatista6016]

As someone who used to do this, it all comes down to 2 things: how fast you can read, and your levels of energy and motivation. I'm naturally a fast reader. My mind goes a 100km/h and I process text really fast, plus I grew up on subbed anime; so overall my reading speed is pretty good. If I have the energy and motivation for it, I can finish books pretty fast; I mean, I finished the entire Twilight series in 3 days because I had nothing else to read and I was so bored so it was interesting enough to keep me going. If you read text slowly, it's going to take more time obviously; but your energy and motivation are the determinant factors here: if you have no energy you'll struggle cause you're too tired to really process the text you're reading, and if you have no motivation you'll stall reading because the book isn't grabbing your attention for one reason or another. Also, you can't read if you have no time in your routine for it, so there's that too.

Wasn’t expecting the Star Wars reference. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

I love being a freak of nature ❤

When my mom was alive she read about 5 books a day. She would get upset if I went onto her not read pile of books to read a book. I got grounded until I finished the book. The day that my mom had a major stroke we went to the book store to pick up a new Laurell K. Halmiton book and few other books that I preordered. I gave my mom 4 out of the 5 books to read before me. She dropped me off with a book and she took the others to her place to read. By the time I finished one book she brought back my other books read and a pot of macaroni and cheese so I didn't have to stop reading and feed my own kids. I miss my mom.

Tbh it's a really complicated process to read really fast but basically it amounts to scan the words and observe them from like a step back. I can only do paragraphs rn but maybe one day I can do pages at a time

[@ravenaddison303]

As a person that goes through a book every day, it is possible, just VERY VERY difficult. 😅

[@BookTime_]

I'M the Person who goes through a book a DAY!

[@Kara_Art]

I remember when I read a series of 13 books in a week. I didn't sleep, read in-between classes and during classes

[@DepressedSunshine]

Honestly, it just depends on the book. If its good, you *know* im grinding on the whole series until my eyes bleed. If its bad…

[@SomeAnimeCult]

I read 7 to 8 books a week..

[@adriande1]

B.S.

[@SomeAnimeCult]

[@dilloncuffaro436]

Ah yes, another person who escaped using books.

[@Hdkrbrjfofjfndkele]

Ya it’s quite sad honestly. It’s just a fantasy it’s like drugs. Escaping your reality

[@girlleavemealone--]

​​@@Hdkrbrjfofjfndkelehow??? I'm generally confused how is reading bad?

[@The_wannabe_Annabeth]

At the beginning of this school year, I had a goal to read 3 books a week and was actually VERY good at keeping the steak. But right around January most of my book serieses ended. So I'm VERY far behind now. I still read tho. 😅

[@TheEarthScienceTeacher]

The answer is audiobooks, you listen to them as background while you do other tasks, like cooking, driving or even data entry in a more mundane job. I am a full time teacher (science btw) and I get through a book every other day when I am really into it, and could easily get through them daily. I did fully get through the Iron Flame Series in 3 days, each is around 22 hrs each on audiobook. It is also dependent on the books you choose. The more you like the books the more you will be likely to read them making it easier.

[@p1p3dr32m]

i’ve gone through 3 books today because i am insane and sick mentally and physically

[@ahsoka_edits]

Hi, I'm that friend who reads it in like 2-3 days. The trick is to procrastinate on everything else. And practice. A lot of it.

[@emmasmith2380]

When I was little and my add was worse I could 100% read three books in one day simultaneously especially when I was off my meds. I definitely worried my mother.

[@Unhinged333]

I don't read a book every day, but i can finish a heartstopper book in just a few minutes😅

[@MsLadybug1974]

I can read a book every day and I have a 40 hr a week job. It's easy especially if the book is 200-300 pages. Just don't watch TV.
