TIL I read 47 books last year without even trying

I was scrolling through my Kindle stats page last night and it said I finished 47 books in 2023. That number stopped me cold because I always figured I was more of a 15-20 book per year reader. Turns out audiobooks during my commute count too, and I had been blasting through them during a 45 minute drive each way to a job site in Livonia. Plus I started keeping a book on my nightstand instead of my phone before bed, which added another 10 or so. The weird thing is I never set a goal or tried to hit a number. It just happened because I swapped scrolling for pages in small chunks. Has anyone else gotten a surprise count when they actually looked at their reading stats for the year?

Same here, it is wild how the small changes just add up.
