I read the second hunger games in about 3-4 hours. I was new at work and they didn't have anything for me to do so I borrowed it from my library online and finished before lunch. I enjoyed getting paid for it too!

I can easily read a book in a day, sometimes less depending on how addicted I get

If I'm really into a book I could easily finish it in about 4 hours

I finished Eye of the Dragon by Stephen King in 4 and a half hours while riding in the car.

There was one day where I finished two 300 page books in one day. Somehow I haven't managed to accomplish that one again.

It usually depends on how engrossed I am in a book and wether or not I'm left alone. I can usually finish a 400 page book in about 5 or 6 hours.

I finished hunger games in 7 hours. It was for a school assignment.

I read Under the Dome in three days. It was perhaps, not the shortest time, but for the length of the book, I found it somewhat alarming. To be fair, I was on bed rest.

I have read some of Kay Hoppers books in about 6 hours while working a mostly boring overnight shift.

Twilight. Finished it in an hour on the last day of school during one period because I had borrowed it from my classmate. It was interesting and I was lacking time.

I have been known to make a good sized book be done in about 2 and a half days if it is really interesting.

I downloaded the Kindle version of A Time to Betray by Reza Kahlili and was hooked! Even though I take many notes while reading I was able to finish the book in less than a day! Most books take me a few days to finish. I guess that is one way to tell how good a book is! =)
