I could do three hours tops. My wife was reading a novel from 10am to 6pm. We really haven't done a bloody thing all day.

I can hardly read a book I love for more than 30 minutes

nope, but it would be hard for me to even find 8 hours straight to make the attempt.

I doubt it.. The last one I read (Last Man Standing: Mort Sahl and The Birth of Stand-up Comedy) was only 320 pages, and it took much less to finish it.

Yes, if I have nothing to do and really enjoy the book :)

No way could I read a book for eight hours, one hour at best. I used to read a lot of mystery stories, and then biographies, but now I just read a few magazines and the evening newspaper (for the crossword puzzles and comics.

Yes, but it's even easier for me to write for 8 hours.... if I even have 8 hours to spare.
