How do i read one book a week?

So I'm starting the 52 books in 52 weeks challenge. most of the books i read can range from 100 to 1500 pages it just depends. How do i figure out how many pages i'm so suppose to read daily?

Like the book i'm getting ready to start has 371 pages how many pages would i need to read per day to finish it in a week? It has 7 chapters.

But how do i figure out how many pages to read daily?

    There are seven days in a week, so divide the total number of pages by 7. Whatever number you get is the number of pages you'll need to read each day in order to finish the book within the 7 days.

    I'd divide the number of pages by number of days and go by that. My current book is 374 pages.

    If I was just starting it and wanted to be done with it in one week then I'd divide 374 by 7 to get 53.43. I'd go plus or minus a few pages based on when the chapter itself ends since I don't care for stopping my reading in the middle of a chapter.

    Get books that interest you, and that have easy to follow writing style. Don't let people tell you that only dense classics count. There are plenty of short good books out there.

    I would suggest, for example, a mystery series featuring characters that you like. If you want more variety, you could look for humor books or memoirs. If you want to add classics, then some shorter classics like 1984, To Kill a Mockingbird, And Then There Were One, etc.

    Or you could just go to the public library and see what books strike your interest.
