How much time do you read a day?

I'm just curious about this because many people talk about how they read 4-7 books a week. That baffles me. I spend around 2 hours a day reading a book, and I only get done with 2-4 books (4 if I'm spending more than 2 hours a day) a week. How much time do you spend off in never neverland?

Like when I should be writing an essay, or I should be doing my calculus homework... x) But some nights I read more then others, it normally depends on the homework load, and then the amount of books depends on how long they are in the end.; ▶ Reply to This

But on a good week I'll spend about an hour to an hour and a half reading everyday. That hasn't happened for a while.; ▶ Reply to This

I read more books at a faster rate if I have new books that I really like. but If i'm just re-reading them, then I don't read them as fast. Overall, I'd say about 2-4 hours a day. unless I have a new book that I'm really excited to read and can't put down. Those I usually just blow through in a day. I miss sleep but that's usually what I do.; ▶ Reply to This

during the week I don't get much time, so sometimes it can take me ages to finish a book if I'm busy on weekends, which at this time of year I am *sigh* I don't get how people can read 4 - 7 books in a week.

I maybe read for 2 hours on the days that I do read.; ▶ Reply to This

So it could be anywhere from 2-5 hours a day ... usually 2-3 hours though.; ▶ Reply to This
