How fast can you read

Thanks to Michelle at 'The True Book Addict' for bringing this interesting online quiz / app to my attention.


I read 692 words an hour, which apparently makes me 177% faster than the national average and reading just above the speed of a college professor. If I continued reading at this speed then I could read The Lord of the Rings in just over 11 and a half hours.
