137 pages in an hour?! That’s crazy I can only read like 35-45 pages in an hour depends on how easily the book is written, I’m so jealous that you got that much done in 1h!!

I once read 150 in an hour... and it wasn't big writing or short pages or anything. I just learned how to speed read through parts I find boring without losing any context. I don't think I could read if I wasn't a fast reader

Literally same because all within 1 hour? That’s impressive, the most I’ve read in 1 hour was 64 pages but the book itself was small with short chapters🤣 but for me it’s 40-50 pages in 1 hour usually
