    Ebook and audiobook, that doesn’t include the time spent reading physical books. I am always reading.

    Not sure if audiobooks are blasphemy here 🙃

    Not sure why it doesn’t show hours before December. Total amount listened is 5 months 18 days.

    Although it is skewed because I fall asleep listening and often forget to set a timer.

    Reading stats of my current kobo ereader, 10199 total hours

    This is my third kobo ereader l’m not sure if the stats transfer between them, but they probably do, read 70-120 books a year.

        Sure, but it’s since 2011, before that I bought real books. Having years of commuting 3 hours 3 times a week also helps. E-readers have made it a lot easier for me to read in between other tasks. 5 minute reading sessions add up over the year

      What other fiction do you enjoy? I finished all the Cosmere books, but I seem to be a little picky when it comes to fiction I have learned.

        I should add Brian McClellan with the powder mage books, Brent Weeks with the Lightbringer books and Peter V Brett with the demon cycle are some very good series with some unique and well thought out magic systems that I really enjoyed.

        Oh, have a list of authors on fantasticfiction.com. (can really recommend the site to keep up to date of book releases and find new books/authors to read) here’s a photo: List of authors I like

        Do you have suggestions for other Authors/books? I liked all the Cosmere books to varying degrees.

        I read Brian McClellan powder mage books, which are sort of similar and enjoyed those. I also read Cradle series by Will Wight which is not similar, but I enjoyed it a lot and it was an easy break from some more dense reading.

          To tell the truth I haven’t read many other fantasy series. Sanderson finished off the Wheel of Time series, which I’ve heard is good. The first book Game of Thrones book was excellent, though I found it quite dense and haven’t got round to reading any more of his. I’ve got the Assassin’s Apprentice on my wishlist as someone recommended that too.

      It’s just as likely they were bought before, considering how long they were popular before she went off the rails.

    I don’t know how accurate this is as quite often I’ll leave my Kobo awake on the desk and read a few pages occasionally while I’m working from home. I probably read more than 0.8 pages a minute (though I do have the text size set quite small)

    Not really from a digital device like your screenshot but I keep track in a Google sheet. I also shared how much are from audible which has significantly increased over the last ~10 years.

    Man I just switched to KOBO Libre Colour and I am loving it. I wish we had a strong community here for it. It’s delightfully hackable.

    I’m all on paper, but it’s around 100 pages an hour. I used to read a book a day, but I don’t have as much time anymore. :(
