I did have a day in there where I was left alone with the book for about 6 hours. How much can you read in 6 relatively uninterrupted hours?

The novels I'm talking about are about 300 pages in paperback. The reading level is not Peanuts, but it's also not Shakespeare.

By comparison, I read the World War Z book over the course of about a week, in bits. I found it very boring and wooden though. Motivation makes a big difference.
