I've read many classics and much pleb-tier, but 115'ish seems low. I'm a 27 year old male. My home library is fairly large physically, but it now feels like I haven't actually read that much. The only comfort is that the quality of what I've read is miles ahead of what my friends on Goodreads read (it uses your Facebook friend's list).
Be honest. How many books have you read?
Somewhere around 200 but a lot of it was crap. Or kids books. Don't worry about how many, if like you said the books you have read were good quality. That probably means you are better at selecting decent lit to read, as opposed to someone who picks up books at random (and wonders why they suck.)
I've read under 50 books in my life. Have read nearly all the famous Russian novels though, but that's not really an excuse.
In the course of my entire life? Like 300
>>8500307
just find the last goodreads thread and look at some of the profiles. some people on here have read 750+ books. of course number doesn't really matter, but if you were to start reading 50 books/yr, you'd be at 500 by age 35.
Probably 250ish, including books I read as a child. Currently 23.
