How much time will it take each day?

According to a study "The average American adult reads prose text at 250 to 300 words per minute." With this in mind the NIV (which has 726,606 words) should take between 48-40 hours of reading total.If you are curious about your reading speed there are a number of resources that you can use to measure it. Can you spare a half hour a day?Note: "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy" has an estimated 561,792 words, I read that in a couple of weeks when I was a kid. "The Hobbit" has 95,674 words.
