Given a average paperback is about 600 pages long, a full charge could last you anywhere from about 4 novels to around 13 novels worth of reading. 4 novels if you are going to read at the x-large or xx-large text size. Most of us use medium text size, so, a full charge should last about 8 average novels or roughly 2 4-book series.

(Right now, I'm on my 6th novel with 50% battery life left.)

As for Rob, I don't know what novels you read, but 2,000 pages per novel... (4,000 page turns, with each page being two page turns).
