Again, this isn't a measuring contest but I will point out that you could read that much given you wanted to. Life is tradeoffs after all.

I have most of it on my kindle so there is a purchase history there.

Recently its been a lot of LitRPG stuff. Dungeon Crawler Carl, The Primal Hunter and so on. I also read most of the Hugo and Nebula lists too. Lots of SciFi in the past couple of years.

I commute for 20 hours a week on public transport, so a lot gets done there. I also read every night as a way to wind down before bed. Sometimes I will read continuously on a weekend if the book/series is engaging enough and can finish a couple of thousand pages that way.

Honestly, its not a target it is just what happens when you read a lot - you get through books.

As for YouTube or Netflix, I dont really watch that much and can't really understand how people spend that much time on them. Given that though, I read instead and lots of people dont understand that. Each to their own, happiness is different for everyone etc

I read around 150 books a year. Most of it is what I like to call "shitlit", or alternatively inconsequential literature.

This does not mean I am better or worse than anyone, just that my default state is reading. Friends eventually read books when recommended them and we talk about then.

Reading shouldnt be a target, it should be for enjoyment. I enjoy shitlit, but others may not.
