Only recently moved from <5 to >66, by way of the magic of audiobooks. Not only broadening my range, but also making joy of everyday drudgery like dishes and slow dog walks. 😀
@Anthony I don't have access to that information. People just choose one of the 4 options.
The options are 5, 15, 45 and higher. It seemed to map out approximately to what I think means "a few" "some" "a lot", "really a lot" and I liked the proportions.
I havnt finished a book in years, but volume-wise (accounting for articles, news, posts and microblogs) Im sure I read the equivalent of several books a year.
Next poll should be: How many books do you have in your to-be-read and to-be-finished piles, where “piles” includes both physical books and unread e-books?
- I missed voting in the poll proper, but most years I'm somewhere between about 35-50. I usually set my Goodreads "goal" to 75 just for motivation, but I've never hit 75. I'm at 34 for the year right now.
I found this very interesting. I read a lot! I would average over 2 books a week, over 5 some weeks. Probably read for over 2 hours every day. I would rather read than watch TV. Ebooks have saved me from books overtaking every room in my house.
fascinating results and responses. I set myself a target to read 26 books this year after failing to read 52 the year before. I've currently read 46, and I've time for a couple more before the end of the year. Mostly fiction, but a few non fiction in there too. Mostly on my kindle, but I read a few physical books this year too. My Netflix watching has suffered😃, but I'm not too bothered about that.

•66+ if we’re using “read” more loosely to also include listening to audiobooks.
