THE AGE OF READING IS OVER - Rose Horowitch The Atlantic

2. Per day?!

That would be 730-1095 books a year! Seriously? That's a lot!

I haven't read as much this year because of a move and trying to get the house in order, which is taking much longer than I would have liked. On a good year, I read about 40-60 books. My goal for last year, now this year, which still hasn't happened, is to read at least two books in a foreign language. I read articles in various languages but not books or magazines.

As for people not reading being MAGATS, I think that is overselling. I doubt most people on this site have read 10 books in the past year. It isn't' an indictment, just that many don't have the time.

Are any of those books foreign? What subjects? And, where do you find the time?!
