For what it may be worth, if you look at the image, you will notice below the larger numbers there are smaller numbers labelled as previous month. As mentioned before, my reading speed runs about 1000WPM. Given that I tend to skip to the first chapter and don't read the filler after the last chapter/epilogue/whatever, I tend to go through books very rapidly.

I knew that I read faster than most people but didn't realize just how much faster until the powers that be decided to do a student reading speed/comprehension test when I was in grade 12. I finished the sample text, answered the questions and handed the pages back. At that point, I was told that I could not have read and comprehended the text that fast, that I must have already seen that random chunk of text. So I got to do 2 more samples and finally, they admitted that I was reading that fast with excellent retention/comprehension.

If anyone has noticed my posts in the Ebook Buying Addicts' Support Thread, I'm the guy posting about the number of books I go through in a month and the lack of a TBR pile (for me, 5 books is a massive TBR).
