I read really, really fast. I used to joke that reading was the only thing I did quickly (I'm not athletically fast at all). When I was in junior high, one of my friends clocked me at 48 seconds for a mass market paperback page. I've slowed down a little since then, but I think it's mostly because a lot of what I read is conceptually more complicated so if I go as fast as I can, I miss things. But I did read almost 60 books (and probably at least twice that amount in fic) in about 7 months last year, so apparently I haven't slowed down all *that* much.
