Novel length
Between 121 and 350 pages is novel territory: most short novels, many classics, and a lot of nonfiction. It is too long for one sitting for most readers, and 30 minutes a day finishes it in under two weeks.
Short daily sessions keep the plot and the characters fresh, so less of your reading time goes to finding your place and rereading.
Why your real number will differ
These times assume about 250 words per page, so 164 pages is roughly 41,000 words. Dense pages, small print, and textbooks carry more words, and pausing or rereading adds time. Your own reading speed matters most: take the Reading Speed Test to replace the average with your measured pace.
