I don't read that many books I used to a few years back but got out of reading them. I might read a few pages here and there.

I don't have time read books. I waste it reading polls.

Seriously though, I read all day. News, interesting articles and many things on the net.

good point. i guess we all read a lot, but not necessarily books.
however, the thread is about books, 'cause books is the more traditional media. i mean, there's been books for thousands of years! there's been librarys ages ago, and so on...
 
I need new books. I've read all of mine a billion times already.

Anyone want to contribute to the "Buy Becks More Books Fund"?
 
About 20 per year, probably. I'm also involved with an amateur writing site, so I read a lot on there- probably the equivalent of another half dozen books per year. I write short stories and poetry, but I try not to read my own dreck.
 
I try to read at least one a month,time permitting. So I voted more than 10.
 
I get through one every month or so. About 10 a year I'd say. Although I skim many more than that and don't read them entirely because they suck. An example of that would be almost any Noam Chomsky book. He makes good points and is extremely intelligent but his books are terribly tough reads. Unlike Richard Dawkins or Robert Wright whose books are extremely well written and easy to get through without loosing interest.
 
i probably read 15-30 a year but that's down from earlier in life when it was 40+ a year. i belonged to 3-4 book a month clubs so i had lots to read
