So how fast DO you read?

As previously advertised, I'm a slow reader.  How about you?

I read, it says here, 443 words per minute, 77% faster than the national average. If I could maintain that pace, and not let my attention get caught by Teh Shiny, I could read The Lord of the Rings in 18 hours.

How fast I read depends on what I am reading. I tend to read most fiction very fast indeed. Faster on paper than on a screen, which is kind of frustrating because I have a hard time holding large books anymore.

Technical reading goes much slower.
