To be fair, the majority of these books are either young adult or historical romance, which I find are much easier to get through in a shorter period of time. In the two years prior to 2012, when I read solely historical biography and non-fiction, I averaged only 50+ books a year.
In general, it takes me a couple of hours to read a YA or historical romance. Of course, that could vary depending on a couple of factors: Enjoyment of the novel (If I dislike it, I tend to avoid reading it, and that obviously impedes my progress) and length of novel itself (For example, I currently have Libba Bray's 'The Diviners' on my 'to be read' shelf and I have a suspicion that will take me days to finish given its sheer size and length) are two important factors.
I'm also a bit of an insomniac, so I'll read well into the early morning hours. I typically can't fall asleep before 3:00am, which gives me plenty of time to read after I go to bed for the night.
