Re: Created this website to tell you how long any book will take you to read

Hey everyone!

The best way to join a community is to get to know each other, so I will tell you a bit about myself! :-D I am a college student and therefore don't have much time for pleasure reading, so I'm trying to catch up during this summer. In college I study finance, information systems, and Spanish. Alread...
