People; when someone says they read an entire novel (300+ pages) in 'one afternoon' - are they just lying/exaggerating? Or do they just skip huge sections? I can't comprehend how anyone could read that fast. Can you read a novel in less day?

75 pages/hour, average of 1¼ pages a minute non-stop. Seems doable if you dont have a chronically wandering mind. I, for one, doubt i could sit still for 4 straight hours, let alone only focus on reading in that time. But then I havent even touched a book for over 6 months, so...
-
Yeah... I'm not saying I do it often but I have done it.

Just take a flight for work to go to a conference. It's the only time I get to do it.

Yes, probably me too... but it’s also got to be a story that swallows me up, otherwise the interruptions come from my own thoughts.
-
What? Wow. Stunned.
-
I might be wrong but apparently this isn't that uncommon in people who read a lot. And I read a tonne as a kid.

Same here. I don't know if I love it, or hate it.

It's ace because I can read a book in an afternoon. I hate it BECAUSE I can read an entire book in an afternoon, and that gets expensive!
