If I'm totally engrossed, 1 1/2 days kahit na may online job pa.. work and read at thesame time!

Wow fast readers pala mga GTalkers :p ..... Ako rin depende sa kapal at story ng book, i can finish a book in 3-7 days....target ko to read 3-5 books a month..

It depends. If I really like the book, I usually finish it 1-2 days because I can't stop. Sometimes I read for 13 hours non-stop. If the book is so-so or thick, 3-5 days.

If i'm sooo hooked to the story, I can finish it 2 to 3 days. I even got to finish a book (Sputnik Sweetheart by Haruki Murakami) in a day. Well, it was not thick anyway.

Now I could barely finish a book due to my busy 'motherhood' schedule, let alone begin reading a new one.

1-2 days, depende kung makapal at interesting yung books..
pero minsan kasi mas gusto ko patagalin ng ilang days bago ko tapusin para lang maalala at ma-internalized talaga yung binasa ko..

LesBelles · « **Reply #130 on:** November 07, 2012, 12:03:11 pm »

3 days lang. Pero pag makapal yung book, 5 days or in a week.

If the book is interesting 1-3 days. Minsan kasi binabagalan ko magbasa at binabalikan ko yung mga pages lalo na pag interesting at nakakakilig yung situation.

Pag boring yung book around 1 month. Sayang naman kung di ko tatapusin. Tyagaan lang.

before, 2-3 days if makapal. i don't read books na di naman ako interesado.
ngayon na may baby na.. mga 5days max. walang tulogan kasi sa gabi lang nagkakatym para magbasa.
