I personaly read every book cover to cover and that means I read 1 book a week.
I'm about the same, however that wasn't always the case.

I've only read a book in one day a few times in my adult life, but before I was volunteering at school full time I could finish an average 300+pg novel in 3 days. It usually required taking the book with me everywhere I went and stealing time when/where I could.

When I worked full time it would be during my break and/or lunch times. Since a lot of my time was spent at a desk I could also read during slow work times. As a mom, there was nap time, waiting in the car after school time, etc.

Now that my kids are a little older, there is no nap time, and I leave school when they leave school.
