  It really depends whats going on. I used to get through four books a week but right now its more like two a month partly because I'm busy with knitting so I am also listening to at least one or two audio books a month.
  Its likely I will be on bed rest by the end of the year and could rack up a book a day.

  I read two to three a month, so probably around thirty a year. However, I start a lot more. I like books to have powerful hooks and to grip me all the way through. I red thrillers mainly, of all types, but if it's boring after the first twenty pages or so, I abandon it. Nothing worse than ploughing through a book hoping it will get better and then feeling it was several days of your life you are not going to get back. I'm the same with movies.

  I'm keeping track of how many books I read this year in the 214 in 2014 thread and so far I have just hit 50. Therefore, I think I average around 100 books a year. I tend to re-read a lot of books in between buying new ones and I tend to read more in the summer as I like sitting outside in my garden with a book!

  I am also keeping track of how many I read in the 2014 in 2014 thread. I read 30+ last year. I am aiming for 50+ this year. I tend to average 3-4 books a month. It tends to depend on what is happening.

  Probably two a week,but I have slowed down a lot since
  I became an old man! Used to be virtually one a day in
  my younger days. Love reading,and (still) can't understand
  people who find it 'boring'!
