I get some weird estimates, like...

a 237,305 word book takes between 5 - 5 hours
a 372,000 word book has no estimates.

If I want to adjust the reading speed to between 200 and 250 words per minute, what values should I use?
I use
Code:
program:ceiling($$#words / 2095)/10
which gives me value in hours with one decimal place. I back-calculated the '2095' value by checking about 10 books on my Kobo for the actual time it took me to read them.
