If you can spare an hour a day, and can read at least a page every two minutes, that's 210 pages a week. I understand if you have family obligations and long work hours but I also like to squeeze some reading in during lunch if it's not a social lunch or maybe right before bed. Just like everything else in life you have to find the time for it and then make the time for it.



I manage about a book a week reading for a half hour or so at lunch time. It's not usually heavyweight stuff - fantasy, historical fiction, sci-fi, on my kindle. But hey, it's my lunch break, right?


Gosh, I'm a slow reader. Usually when I read books (mostly non-fiction) it takes me a few days. If I just partitioned it to 30 minutes at lunch time like yourself, it would've taken me two to three weeks to read The New Jim Crow!
