Why is the top comment on "I read" posts always that it's implausible that someone could read that much? 5k pages in 3 mo. isn't that weirdpic.twitter.com/vPaBhc7oVz

I known people who've, at times in their lives, read > 500 pages a day, or 1 book every day or two. That's obv. not normal, but...

I find it very strange that there are people who find it unbelievable that anyone could read at 1/10th or 1/5th of that rate.

I think my friends either read 1-3 books a year or 1-3 books a week. Very bimodal

I was definitely one of those kids--checked out stacks of 5-10 books every weekend at the library. Then college happened. :/

the processing is the bottleneck, not the input. That to me is the crux of speed reading and the core of disbelief you're referring to

Weird, when I was in the zone I easily finished 800-1000 pages in a week. And that's in a language that's not my native one.

Yeah that sounds like a very reasonable number. It’s all about what you choose to do with your time.

Yeah. 100 pages/day would be roughly ~2 hours of evening reading time to me.

I think I should start measuring my reading for any reasonable opinion. 100 pages daily isn't a lot, but how does it affect schedule?

Also, how is comprehension affected? How much reading is done by subject/field/whatever?
