What was the quickest time you read a BL novel and what was the novel’s chapter length? (No short novels. Short novels are 40 chapters or less.)
Addis’ Answer: I read a 100 chapter novel in about 16 hours. Even read while I took a bath. Lol.
1 min read
Read 120 chapters nearly for 2days I guess. Took a break for sleep lol
I honestly don’t know. I don’t remember stuff like that, unfortunately 🤦♀️
However, I do know that I read 731-chapter The Legendary Master’s Wife, every single day until I finished it. I stopped watching my beloved Asian dramas on TV and did almost nothing else! I know I read it pretty quick though ~ possibly in about 2 weeks. Loved it and it’s now a firm favourite.
The only one I kept track of was GDC on here. I read every day after work. Read while I was folding laundry, cooking dinner, coffee in the morning. I think I finished it in a week and a half.
Nowadays I’m reading so many books at once that keeping track is too much work.
(There haven’t been any huuuuge translations that have really grabbed my attention either. So I read a but, move on, go back for a few chapters, etc.)
I remember vaguely telling my friend but that message buried too far in our chat LOL
uh I think it was around 13 hours on a 200 chapter novel? but I know I read another 200 chapter novel over 2 days about 6 hours per day
That’s not really something I can compare.
Some novels have 1 chapter that’s the length of 3-4 chapters of another novel. (As I’m sure the translator can confirm)
So some “short” novels have taken me a week to read, while others I’ve swallowed up in a day.
Usually, a 100-ish chapter novel, if completed already, I can read in 2-3 days if the chapters are of average length.
