Direct, research-backed answers to everyday questions on reading speed, comprehension, retention, and Screen Time locks.
Yes—reading just 10 pages a day takes ~11 minutes at an average 250 WPM pace and totals 3,650 pages per year. That equals 13 to 15 full-length books annually, nearly triple the median adult reading rate, while keeping daily friction low enough that you never break your streak.
If you used to devour books as a kid but now re-read the same paragraph three times before checking your phone, your intelligence hasn't dropped—your attention system has adapted to hyper-novelty feeds. Removing phone proximity and locking feeds for a 15-minute daily reading block restores deep reading stamina within 10 to 14 days.
To finish 24 books in a year (two books per month), assuming an average book length of 300 pages, you need to read 7,200 pages per year—which equals exactly 20 pages per day. For an average reader (250 WPM), 20 pages takes just 22 to 24 minutes a day.
