It usually takes me about ten days to two weeks to finish a work of fiction, unless it is merely a light thriller in which case I frequently read it in a single sitting. Non-fiction can take much longer because I spend more time on the details. (I have read The God Delusion twice but continue to return to it.) My time for personal (fiction) reading is from 7:00 - 9:00 AM when I visit my favorite cafe. I read the morning paper and then whatever fiction book I'm working on. However, this time can get interrupted by friends showing up at the same cafe. My serious reading I do at home in the evening.

Per week? At least two. More during the summer when I have more time. I never tried counting how many I read in a year. I'm studying English (graduating in two weeks! Woot!) so that skews the calculation since I read for school as well as for pleasure :)
I would say over 50 a year. I used to read more (I think my record was 200 or a bit more a couple of years ago). Yeah. I love books :) In fact, I've been a bit depressed lately because I haven't been able to read for fun as much as I wanted to. University reading took precedence.

Per week, an average of about 4. But if I go into one of my reading slurges, then maybe 9.
In an entire year I could read up to almost 100 books.

about 1 per week. A few weeks ago I wasnt very busy so I read 5 books; Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Double Identity, and Secret Garden...
Double Identity and Secret Garden are pretty short though...

Week: on average 3ish.
Month: any were from 3-10 (depending on how many Pro-D days we have at school, the length of the books, and how busy I am.)
Year: Heck, I don't know. A lot. I lose count after the fifth.

I usually read a book each week, but if I'm extremely busy, it takes me longer than a week to finish a book.

About 5 a week all year. So about 260 books a year. Sometimes more sometimes less but around that every year.

About four or five per week. I read a lot and quickly.
