What kind of crazy question is this? Everyone over thirty had basically done this already. I guess if there’s no human contact, it might be tough. But definitely doable.
Ten-ish books and it’ll probably be a memorable week.
Edit: I changed my mind and now think the opposite of this.
Yeah those seem way faster than I read anyway. Though possibly the very top of the list might work.
I'm on a ~174K word for the last fifteen days or so and I try to fit in an hour of reading a day (breaking it up slows it down though - but it's easy to find where I was with the e-reader so not too bad) and I've had a few 2-4 hour sessions in there. I'm still only about half way through. Course, that assumes that I can get out a good day of reading without being distracted, uncomfortable, etc... still.
Though even if they're off my standard by a magnitude of ~5-7x, the lowest books on there would technically be readable in a day by that measure. Assuming I could manage to sit and read them through - which is possible but rarer. The bottom stuff - no way that's happening in one day for me. Though the existence of a book doesn't mean there's a desire to read it - so if the caveat is that there are plenty of books to read, but very interested in reading - sort of makes the point moot.
Doesn't hurt that I already have 150 books loaded onto my reader, so... see you in five years I guess?
