20-30. But only because I’m a trapped parent with two kids and have to give up my social life. Whatever pockets of free time I have go to reading n Netflix

Amount of books read per year is a vanity metric IMHO. I read 30 mins per day. Started two years ago. Number of books read depends on how many pages they have and this is pretty much irrelevant if the topic is interesting.

This question depends on the size of the books.
Nevertheless, at least 6 books a year should be doable for any adult.

I don't really aiming to read as much of books as possible. That makes no sense to me. I prefer buy a book that is so meaningful to me that I willing to read again more than one time. For example, I bought a book back in 2015 and I read at least 30 times and it still makes a lot of sense for me. It was really worth to buy it.

Could you tell me which book it is?

There are many of them but for example one of my favourite is the "White Fire" by Mooji. Perhaps second best is the "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle. 🙂

How do people decide which books to read?
reply
0 sats \ 2 replies \ @oraltosun OP 7 Feb
Sometimes I make decisions while reading a book. Sometimes when watching a YouTube video.... If the book says take me, I take it.

I wanted to say, "When I read a book, I choose which book to read next."

Unfortunately, three books last year only, and a few I started but didn’t finish. With work and family there is not much time left for reading. Before that when I was still at school it was another story.

I accidentally hit 50+ which is definitely not true, you should -1 if you're using this for real research

Scriptures have such an effect. You open a random page, and you see that it points to your troubles. I know that Dostoevsky often did this.
