When I was reading that much, I would have multiple books going at the same time and I had more time available. I commuted via mass transit, 90 minutes a day, plus another 45 minutes for lunch and two 15 minute breaks. That normally accounted for 2 or 3 books a week, plus I would read another book for a couple hours a night while my wife watched tv and I'd read a 3rd book for 30 minutes or so when I went to bed. This was before e-readers, so I was at my public library every Sat morning checking out 4 or 5 books for the week.
Now I listen to audio books on my commute and have a shorter lunch break, I still read before bed and a couple nights a week, so I go through about 1 or 2 books a week.
