How often do you read, and for how long each time?

[JayDub]

I try to get in 3hrs a day, each day whenever possible.

[5stringJeff]

I read about 3-4 times a week, for about an hour at a time.

 

[Nienor]

I read about 24 hours a day
For books- average is about 3-4 hours/day. I sacrifice my sleeping time.

man you guys have a lot of time on your hands, huh? haha jk..
my for-fun reading would be right before i go to bed. probably a half an hr, if im really into it and not tired then a little longer. no longer than an hr though. i love my sleep.
im too busy during the day to read, unless its required for school.
i try to read every night though

Daily. For several hours a day!

As a teenager, I pretty much lived in my bedroom reading (I was probably the only teenager whose parents actually encouraged them to go out to parties and the like, just to get me out of my room ) As an adult, before having a baby, probably about three hours a day. Now I can squeeze in an hour a day if I'm lucky, but I'm doing other things at the same time (eg. playing blocks with my daughter while reading), so it's not quite the same.

It was great when the latest Harry Potter book came out, though. My husband was wonderful, he looked after Isabel all weekend, and cooked all of our meals, and let me read almost non-stop

I read mostly every day. I typically read for at least an hour before I go to bed, but it really depends on what I'm reading and how interested I am in the story. I also keep a book in my purse so I can read it on my lunch break or if I'm waiting at a doctor's office or whatever, but that's more sporadic.

I takes spells when I read,sometimes pulling "all-nighters"! Other times just read a few times for an hour or so a day.

I go in spurts... I'll go for a long time of only reading magazines/booklets and stuff on the computer... Then all of a sudden I'll see a book that captures me... and I'll spend hours upon hours reading the book until I'm done... Sometimes these books are part of a trilogy and so then I read the others books as well... I can read for hours and hours and hours... especially, when the HP books come out...lol

 

[Tricia4Jesus]

An hour or so every day.

 

[ChrisinMI]

A few hours a day usually. I try to read my bible for at least 30 minutes then if I do that I can read leisurely. I have small children so time is sometimes challenging. But I love to read.

 

[Ellesar]

I can for hours on end easily... I'm such a bookworm

 

[RalPA]

At least 2 hours a day...everyday!

 

[elvenstar]

I used to read for hours on end, but I've run out of authors and my reading has diminished. It makes me so sad, I used to be a total book worm and now i hardly read at all.

 

[strawberrygate]

I read the Bible for about 20 to 30 minutes of a morning before the children are up and other books at night when I go to bed for probably about the same amount of time before the book falls on my face because I've fallen asleep. Although now I have a break from studying so I can catch up during the day now.

 

[Eyes2wardsHeaven]

When I find a really good book, I read for hours and hours

 

[KristianJ]

Same as above If I start a book that has a great prologue or introductory chapter or 2, it'll keep me reading for hours
