I love buying books, but I cannot read the whole book.

Hey mate then stop buying the books and use the time u spend on shopping for the books to actually complete reading one. I assure you, you will love it and will start reading more and more.

I never really tried to count until recently. Last year I read 91 books and this year I'm aiming for 100. (I am up to 70, by the way.) I really don't find it that hard. I'm a mad-crazy reader and I always take a book with me wherever I go. I am a busy person, don't get me wrong! But I can make time for the things I love... like reading. I typically read whenever I get a spare minute and usually finish 2-3 books a week.

I can read 1 book in just two days but I didn't do it so often. Maybe an average of 30-40books a year will do for me. Now that I have to take care with my two babies, working from Mon-Fri, it is really hard to find time to read books same as what I used too. Now, I just read in between feeding time with my little one. My only issue is that, I got too carried away, I cannot sleep for the whole night and tend to finish the book in one sitting. The result, sleepy eyes during the day at work.

I don't really keep count. Ususally I will have about two or three books on the go at any one time. Id say..And this is an estimate..About twenty in a year. Im not a massive reader but I do like to read a little. Its just finding the time thats the hardest part and staying focused is hard for me too.

It's hard for me to guess because I read more than one book at a time & I definately buy more books than I can read. My best guess is that I'll read about 50 books a year...about one a week sounds about right...maybe a little less.
