answer 2
It depends on how much time you have. You should be able to get through this in a few sessions, maybe 3-5 hours total. Again, everyone reads at different speeds. It is a very good book and deserves attention.
answer 3
I read it in 2 days, with lots of breaks. I would read 2-3 chapters at a time (the chapters are short) and then do something else for a few hours. It’s a good and quick read. I think you will like it. It’s not difficult.
answer 4
It depends on how fast you read, how many interruptions you have, etc. I think it took me about 2 hours the last time I read it. However, it shouldn’t take too long – it’s a short book, the writing style is very easy to understand, and the story unfolds quickly. =)
Answer 5
It took me three days, but I was in high school and taking tennis lessons at the time, so I couldn’t devote all my time to it; I read chapters between courses and years. Curiously, the sound of fuzzy tennis balls bouncing off the walls and court provided an interesting backdrop for the book.
Answer 6
It took me about a week with me reading only about half an hour to an hour a day anyway. It was a great book, but should be easy to finish if you have the time.
Source(s): I read it last year for school

Answer 8
Honestly, it’s up to you. It took me a few weeks to get out of it. I’m not exactly a fast reader, but this one gave me more trouble than usual because I just couldn’t get into the story and still wonder why it should be a classic.
Answer 9
Can be read in 2 or 3 days – enjoy.
Answer 10
Three nights exactly what I did. Take the opportunity to read it before going to bed (8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.).
