I can't.
I have a job, and my free time I would not even dare about spending it reading a book. However, in my younger high school days, I did read a couple of 400+ page books. --- <cite>Metallix87 posted...</cite> "Nintendo is an animal" ... Copied to Clipboard!

Depends on how much I'm able to ignore my kids and other social obligations. If I really needed to I probably could though.
Though last year I did read through the sunlight Stormlight archive books and each took about 2 weeks, and those are between 1000 to 1200 pages each. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I read Deathly Hallows in a day when it came out. The US version is like 780 pages. Granted, the pages are pretty damn short, but based on that, I could definitely do it for most books.

Depends on the book. If it's an easy read, like most stories, sure. If it's a nonfiction book teaching something complex, it's going to take a while.

In a week, no problem.
I will say, however, that not all books are made equal.

I read through A Feast for Crows for the first time in one overnight sitting - it was during a power outage, and I had to stay up all night babysitting a faulty portable generator that would shut itself off every 5-30 minutes (thankfully I at least had a battery-powered lantern to read by). Admittedly I was maybe 100 pages into it already, and the wiki says it's only 700-odd pages (although the page count on my paperback version is just shy of 1,000, so whichever is supposed to count).
