If you read every single day, you've got more than 5 days to make 61+ books per year. Say an average of 4 hours per day and you easily should finish the average book in that period.
BTW: I'm mainly reading at night, thanks to Kindle Paperwhite and Kobo Aura HD. Typically from 2am (heading to bed after this post, it's 1:25am now in Germany) to 5am. Then I get up between 9am and 11am - whatever my biorhythm and my wallet dictate.
