I have a ridiculously short commute this year, actually I have been blessed to be a naturally speedy reader, I think...

I read 222 books in 2009. The list is here.

49 of them were ebooks. (Actually, the number is probably slightly higher than that, because I imagine I probably forgot to give some of them the "ebook" tag on LibraryThing.)

Rated 5 stars: 28
Rated 4 stars: 101
Rated 3 stars: 63
Rated 2 stars: 19
Rated 1 star: 4
Unrateable for one reason or another (generally because they were for research rather than for enjoyment): 7

I exercise a lot, and usually read when I exercise (on the treadmill or the stationary bike), so I get a lot of reading done that way. I also read every night before going to bed, and I don't watch much TV.

I read 12 new books and re-read around 6 others. I keep to a 1 book a month and it usually takes me 2-3 weeks to finish a novel. I admit I'm a rather slow reader, I usually like to mull over the words and re-read passages a lot and only read a few chapters a day.

But thinking about this, on my Sony, the books I read are 700+ pages of small font text. Many are over 1000. 700 pages * 200 books / 365 days would be 384 ebook pages a day every day. At 700 books in a year that would over 1300 pages a day. No way I could do that, my brain would explode.

The good news for me is I already have my 12 books lined up for 2010. Half are physical and half are ebook.

Today I can answer:
  • 137 books
  • 46 short stories
And I read in my commute time (about an hour every day), before night and when I go shopping (public transport usually).
And I keep a list in Excel, an access database for paper books and other for electronic books, and goodreads too.

It is as it was. People come and go. In a decade or so of hanging around, more or less, I haven't noticed any significant changes, except for the subjects of the flamewars.

Interesting thanks. I may have started a few of the flamewars.

I'll have to stop by and take a look.

Thanks!
