I don't know and frankly said, I really don't care how many books I've read in about 50 years, probably a couple thousand. And for most of them I don't even remember the name or the author. I end up cherishing maybe a dozen or so. But the best time I had with a book was in 2020. It's a German book on practical microscopy.
I also bought a microscope and went through that one book.
I learned more from that one book than from hundreds of those I read before, highbrow or lowbrow.
And I read a lot more of the former, a lot more. Binge reading is just that.
Binging, not reading.

It's only THIS year that I'm actually LEARNING and getting on terms with the fact that it's not a challenge or whatever, but more about the information and enjoyment. Again, I absolutely understand how stupid this might sound to someone, and I agree - it is stupid; but yet, that's how I honestly feel :)
But this year I've been "allowing" myself to re-read some stuff that I enjoyed in the past, without actually keeping track of it. And so far it's working out.
