How many books do you read annually?

[Reading lady]

It really depends on the length of the book and what is going on in my life. I read usually 2 books a week and if it is a quiet week maybe 3. Sometimes though I listen to audio books and they take longer. I would have to say I read at least 100 books a year or more. Interesting question and I think I will keep track for a year and just see.

I probably read 35-50 each year.

[dianaan]

About 30 a year let's say

[Mdancer]

It depends on the timing. Usually it's around 4-8 books a month... but some months it's a book a day.

I think I usually read 100+ a year...but it really depends on what's going on. I seem to go through spurts of reading a ridiculous number of books in a couple weeks and then languidly reading a book a week for a while and then shifting back again. When I was in school, if I counted the books for my classes, I think I still close to that number.

I read 35 last year. My goal wad 25, so i did well. MY goal this year is 30. In only at 8 so far, so i should easily meet that goal. I love to use goodreads for keeping me on track in the reading challenge. There are some people on there that have read OVER 100 already! I don't know how they do it.

It really depends on the books and what is going on in my life. Last year I read 150-some books, coming out to an average of 3(or so) per week. Yet because I've been dedicating so much of my time to reading this year, I'm averaging about 4-6 books per week.

I have an aunt though who only manages to read about 1 book per month. She always feels bad about it but she's extremely busy with work and being a mother, so I don't judge her for not being able to read as much as I can. It all depends on a persons responsibilities (oh, and reading speed).

I set my goal for 100 books a year, but I generally read around 70-80 books.

[castor]

14 last year. I set my goal to 21 for this year

[Firefairyholic]

Last year I read 120. But this year I'm slacking because of our new blog. We've been busy with other things.

[AMP76]

I average two books per week, for pleasure. Add to that one book per month for real life book club, three to four professional journels and one or two hobby articles.

[SoftCoyote]

Last time I kept track I it was around 70 or so books.
I don't really know about now though.

[Jen319164]

About 75

[Nimbus Wolfsbane]

Around five books a month - 45 a year.

I try not to set a numerical goal; instead I have a master list of all the books I want to read over the year. Current number: 45+
