I have a personal library of over 3000 books and I've read every one at least once and many more than once. No bookshelves at the moment, all in storage. If you add the books that I've read digitally I don't even know how many I've read.

I'm still reading all of the instruction manuals and terms or service agreements from the things I have purchased. Don't have time to read 3000 books!

One of my favorite of all time book series were the Wheel of time books. Please don't go by that horrid adaptation that amazon attempted. Almost as bad a book adaptation as battlefield earth.

Robert Jordan was notorious for not making his deadlines by several years in some cases. I would go back and reread the entire series each time a new book came out (I started reading them when book 4 had just come out, there are 14 books) to refresh my memory on what had occurred. I bought 3 of the books when a new one came out while I was in Hong Kong while in the Navy.

I would seek out long series because I liked the character development over time. I would reread series (sometimes a decade or more later) to compare how I've grown in experience and knowledge.
 
A young lady (25) introduced herself as Chandelle to be sure I heard her correctly I asked Chantelle or Chandelle? Chandelle was the reply along with a explanation that her dad is a pilot and a "chandelle" is a aircraft maneuver.
Without missing a beat I said I have watched enough porn to know that isn't what a "chandelle" is.
She got all red in the face and wanted to slug me after I said , just kidding 😉 We had a good laugh over it and I am sure she has already told her dad.

Ever read The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant? If not, I'd highly recommend them.
