Read 100 Books Per Year (It's More Achievable Than You Think)
How speed reading makes 100 books/year realistic
The Problem
Reading 100 books per year seems impossible. You read 10-20 books per year and can't imagine 5-10x that. You see people achieving this goal and wonder how they do it.
Why This Matters
- ⚠️Feeling like 100 books/year is impossible
- ⚠️Stuck at 10-20 books/year
- ⚠️Envy of prolific readers
- ⚠️Missing out on massive knowledge growth
- ⚠️Reading goals that seem unachievable
The Solution
100 books/year is absolutely achievable with speed reading. The math: at 500 WPM, a 300-page book takes 3 hours. Reading 30 minutes daily = 1 book/week = 52 books/year. Increase to 1 hour daily or reach 600 WPM, and 100 books/year becomes realistic. LumaRead gets you there.
How It Works
The Math: 100 books/year = 2 books/week
Average book: 80,000 words = 300 pages
At 500 WPM: 160 minutes (2.7 hours) per book
2 books/week = 5.4 hours of reading
That's just 46 minutes per day at 500 WPM
LumaRead trains you to 500-700 WPM in weeks
