Depends on the book. With comprehension and taking time to reflect and savor the details 10 to 24 hours for a 350 page book. reading straight through. I can find a plot summary in about ten minutes but that is different.

It depends on the book... Here lately, it's been taking my about 1 1/2 to 2 days to finish a book.

Like some of the other answers here, I agree that it depends on the book. For me some types of books will take longer than others, such as Shakespeare(a type of English I don't read on a regular basis) or a non-fiction book( especially something about physics or biology where I am trying to retain the information.) But what really speeds me up is how interested I am in the book. The more exciting the faster I will read it.

I read about 100 pages in 50 minutes do it depends on the book and how much free time I have. About 300 pages is 2-3 days in school. If I don't take time to finish writing my novel.

Depends on how good a story it is, and how well it's written. I read Harry Potter 1-6 in about 2 days. I have read The Stand in a day. Most books, I finish in a day or 2, but there are some that it took FOREVER! ;)

It depends upon the book
I can read my favourite series books in a short time cos i have interest
Some historical books take up long time cos i find it boring
But on average I am a fast reader
But when i read something to understand it , for eg: [a comprehension in an exam]i read it slowly and let all the words rotate in my mind

Of course it depends on the book, but a SF of average length usually takes 3 or 4 hours. If it is something I am reading for pleasure, it goes much faster than something I would read for , say school. That has been a few years though!

Well, I am a pretty slow reader, so it depends on the size of the print, page, etc. It also depends on if I really like the book, or if I am reading it because I have to.

Depends. If it is less than 400 pages, about a day. More than 400 pages, about two days. 1200 pages or more about 3 days.
