        Depends on the book and depends on the subject.

        I read about 60-100pg/h. Something like a shakespeare play that has dialog and therefore less words per page can go faster. I don’t use speed reading techniques and I always did fine on AR tests and book reports (i never bothered using cliff notes cause I actually like reading).

        Well, it would be, if the chairs actually didn’t move from one place to another.
