For me it depends on book length and how much can time I have with things I got to do for class. But usually about a week.
Minimum 100 pages. Let's say you've got moderate workload, will you still be able to finish in one week? Just take any length between 100 to 300.
Guys I think I have a problem. In the past month I have bought 6 books and my grandparents got me an e-reader. So, I now own about 50 books that I desperately want to read..
It's a great problem to have :). I have a bunch of new books for Kindle and Ibooks that I need to start reading, too. So many books, so little time...Anybody else get more reading done by listening to audiobooks in the car?
I usually borrow from my library through the Overdrive Media app. Oh, and I have purchased some, like the ACROSS THE UNIVERSE series and the DIVERGENT series, on ITunes.
I'm not sure of any other free audiobook websites, but the Overdrive Media app is free, and your local library probably uses it or Hoopla, or Axis 360. Any of these let you borrow an audiobook through your library and listen to it on your computer or phone (if you have/get the app).
Oh, that would be a shame if they don't! You might even find they have audiobooks on CD. I think most other sites have subscriptions or otherwise sell audiobooks. I did find a link to a site that lists public domain audiobooks of classics for free.http://www.openculture.com/freeaudiob...
Cursed Child is almost out! Who else is excited but kinda dreading any more deaths? (I'm still not over Lupin & Tonks)
Not that I am aware of, I'm pretty sure it is just another book in the series. It is the official 8th book!
Awesome :) I am glad J K Rowling is writing another one. I remember thinking at the end of Deathly Hallows that Albus is going to have a lot to live up to, so I was really happy when I saw that there is going to be a book with Albus's perspective. :)
Yes i was thinking that too! :)
My library has the cursed child on order so I reserved it☺ I'm like 39th out of 64 though so may have to wait a while. I also asked for it for my birthday in September so then I can read it as much as I want.

Hello Nizeyimana! ( I like your name by th way, it's different :) )
I am doing quiet good. I'm sitting at my desk, it's pitch black outside, I'm at my desk with a cup of now cold tea. Good times, good times.
Well here, it's nearly midnight. Tomorrow though, I'll be helping my dad build our workshop with sided logs. Hopefully finish the book I'm reading. Unfortunately, if I finish this book, I'm out of new ones for a while. I'll have to go back to rereading everything, which I'm okay with. How about you?
I should have asked tomorrow xD I'm supposed to be studying the entire day, but I just got a new book, so maybe I'll read that. And I have a little homework, but I have an entire day to complete it.
