If we  use March 1 as the Kindle start date, roughly fourteen weeks have elapsed since I acquired it. In that time, I've read eleven books, averaging 78% of a book read per week. 

And this doesn't count the books that I've been reading in print or via Audible. If we factored those in, I'm probably averaging over a book a week in total.
