Ive been reading the Harry Potter books for the first time ever (seen the films a million times but never got around to actually reading the books). And now that I’ve just finished the third book, I’d thought I’d share some reading statistics with you all - secretly hoping there are other statistics nerds in the crowd.
I started reading the the first book on 14th July, and now at 8pm on 20th July I’ve just put down the third book.
So thats 3 books, 6 days - approximately 18 hours of reading (not really accounting for small toilet breaks etc). Over the 3 books, I’ve read 791 pages, 57 chapters and 272,038 words.
On average, that is 1 book every 2 days (or 6 hours), 3 chapters an hour, 44 pages an hour and 15,113 words an hour.
Anyone else love love getting into statistics like this?
