I really feel bad. And this is embarassing, because I'm going to sound arrogant.
How on earth can people feel proud of only reading a book a week, or less, even? I can read a book just going to class, and another coming home. It's a sad week when I don't manage to read even one book. High school, I would take out six books from the library at once, return all six within two days. That's not counting the books they gave me, and the ones I read while in the library during lunch. Is it normal to read so little? Is it that people read slowly, or that they have other things to do? I don't get it.
I feel weird now. Like the freak here.
Well, I did tell you not to click. Don't blame me.

Also, I'm very picky about what I'll read & can only reread books so many times with few exceptions(Robert Heinlein's The Green Hills of Earth was an exception but I can only read it every few years, now).
