“I’m a fairly monogamous reader. The only time I’ll double up is if I’m reading something really heavy that I don’t want to carry around with me all day, but even then I’ll almost always suck it up and take it with me. And I’m not that fast, either — I think I read about fifty books last year, which is really paltry amount compared to some booksellers and super-readers I know.” (via Emma Straub! Fun Thing Day 65 « The Pencil Box)
Me too! I considered myself a fast and high-volume reader, in fact, until I started working in bookstores. Y’all are book demons, in the best way.
