How long does it take to read The Art of Seduction?

At 468 pages, The Art of Seduction is a fairly long book. Expect about 8 hours 30 minutes of reading to finish it, based on 250 words per page and an average reading speed of 230 words per minute. A fast reader will go quicker; a careful read (or reading in a second language) will take longer.

At 30 minutes a day, that is about 17 days of reading. At the median pace of Vread readers, 72 pages per reading day, it takes 7 reading days.

In Vread, The Art of Seduction is split into 24 checkpoints, one every 20 pages or so. At each checkpoint, a question covers the passage you have just read: a correct answer validates the step, and your progress moves forward like a training plan.

The challenge: validate all 24 checkpoints through to the last page. No giant quiz at the end, no summary to copy out: short questions along the way that prove the book was actually read. It also works as a reading quiz to check your understanding before a test.

Also available in French on Vread.
