That's fine, reading is as personal a past-time as it gets. What I am alluding to is arbitrary dismissal based on a word count. Such act precluding the opportunity for choice and incidentally cutting readers off (at least 30% of them according to this insightful and scientifically organized Poll), from what they really like. Which is a whopping monster of an interesting read.
