I seldom have much time to sit down and just read a book. I honestly don't know if I could read a book that size in a couple of days, heck, I've taken many days to read one only a couple of hundred pages. Like I said, I don't have much time to just read.

I'd have to be in pretty strange situation to have that time. like the computer being down and being sick or something

it usually takes me about an hour to finish a 180-page paperback when i find it very interesting. for the book of 500 pages, an interesting book would take me about 3 hours. if it's not interesting... i don't think i'd be able to finish it at all. i'll just return it to the deep end of the bookshelf where it belongs. :)

It really depends on how much time that I can spend on reading the book, and such. I don't think that I would be able to read that much in two days. But, if I read a lot of this book, then I think that I may be to read it in a week or so, or something to that effect.

It depends on how interesting the book is. I remember there were a few books that were so exciting, that I just couldn't put them down to sleep, and end up finishing the book around 3-4 am in the morning - I have to wake up at 6am to rush for work. Other than that, it usually takes me about a week; I read about 1 hour each night before I sleep.

I used to do that too just to finish the book or get to know what happens next I was so anxious to know all too quickly.;-)

I prefer not to answer this question. Last time I read a book it took me 5 months to completely read it. ;-)It was less than 500 pages. Some books can take me a lifetime to read.

My boyfriend takes a lifetime to read a book less than 500 pages too. He is maybe afraid as the book will finish soon. Sometimes he does so with movies too. He never watch a whole movie at one time but instead he takes 3 to 7 days to finish the movie. Thats why I never lend him my books or movies, he takes too much time and I fear he will never return me or will get my books or movies lost.

It would all depend on how good the book is....if its one that I'm really enjoying I could read it in a couple hours (assuming I had the time)..if its one that I'm not so in to it could take me months LOL

It depends- I can read a book in a day, or it may take me a week- I am a fast reader though so even when I am super busy and can rarely read I can still finish in a week. I have to know what happens once I start a book- I have no patience....LOL

Yeah me too I am so desperate to know what will happen that I cannot drop the book in the middle.

It depends if I find the story interesting or not. With an interesting book, I can skip my eating period and my sleeping time just to finish it. Well, it can still take up to 2 days, though. :3

I have done that before, i mean skipping my breakfast, lunch or dinner or even sleep to just complete my book.
