I never counted, but I usually read as few textbooks as possible, I prefer study guides, sparknotes, flashcards etc.
I read LOTS of books for pleasure from Nora Roberts to Tom Clancy In the last year since I am not really dedicated to a degree plan I have probably read 100-150 books. Sometimes I don't read for a couple of weeks and other times I read a book a day.
As for buying I buy a lot of education books to hep me be a better teacher (I don't read these I just kind of jump around) I also buy many, many books when my church has a BIG book sale in Sept. $0.25 or 5/$1 paperbacks and $1 hardcovers. So total I probably buy 100 books a year. My house is overrun with books.
