M is 7 months! She doesn't nap and I go to bed early so I don't have much time to read :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234270 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:59:28 +0000 shinymama 1234270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2-3 days. If a book is really good I will sacrifice {some} sleep in order to read. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234248 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:48:46 +0000 Koolbreeze 1234248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was thinking of this same question earlier. It takes me 2-3 days. I take a bath and read almost every night. On night's I don't take a bath I stay up late to read. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234222 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:40:36 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1234222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say about 3-4 days. </p> <p>Though ever since I had kids, it takes me 6 months to a year to finish a book! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234215 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:39:27 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1234215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could read it in 2-3 days. Depending on how busy I am it could take a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234206 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:37:39 +0000 lemondrop 1234206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These days about a week (used to be 2-3 days). I took a speed reading course in college, otherwise I would have a hard time finishing books with a kiddo around and my odd work hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234198 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:35:04 +0000 Bao 1234198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: oh ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234194 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:33:59 +0000 .twist. 1234194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I love them. They are all knights and princesses with a few dragon myths thrown in. I love knights and princess stories though. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234190 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:31:59 +0000 Bao 1234190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I've never read those books...they must be good? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234186 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:30:53 +0000 .twist. 1234186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hm. Definitely depends on the length. A 300 page novel could take me a day if I'm into it, or a couple weeks if I'm not. I've read books like game of thrones in less than a week, but that is with some very obsessive dedication! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1234177 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:29:09 +0000 mrs. 64 1234177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About a week probably </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1232939 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 13:46:55 +0000 lovehoneybee 1232939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A 300 page book that I was really into? Probably 2 sittings, maybe 3. One that I was only so-so about? Probably 4-5 sittings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-does-it-take-for-you-to-read-a-book#post-1232865 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 13:36:24 +0000 Bao 1232865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Say it's an average 300 page book...how long would that take you, if you still had to continue normal life and couldn't just sit and read the entire day? </p> <p>If I love the book and I'm really sucked in, I can read a book of that length in about 3 days. I read at nap time, and then at night if DH is not home. </p>
