My goal is 50 books this year and I am not a really fast reader. I usually do a combination of physical books and audiobooks. I used to differentiate between the two but have found I really have the same experience. Also, I can do small jobs around the house and listen to a book at the same time. Right now I am painting a bedroom and I'll have that project done tomorrow plus a whole book under my belt as well. I have a 30 minute commute each day (well I did before Covid) and will listen then as well.For those that can read 50 to 100 books a year, what are some tips you think would help someone that isn't a fast or immersed in a book for hours reader like me? How many hours typically do you read a day? Are you really fast readers, skimming readers or soak it up plus read quickly, or just dedicate a lot of daily time to reading?
I'd like to improve, but I don't usually like to sit and read a book that long in one sitting. I think I do read a lot elsewhere besides whatever book I'm currently in, I'll read articles on multiple topics online/PDFs of information, etc.
