This is an interesting questins.  I had a freshman asked me during
orientation last week, after I gave book talks, "So...they just pay you to
read books?".  I wish!  I have a seminar class that is college bound reading
and I model by reading with my students, otherwise, it's homework.

Classroom teachers take home tests and papers to grade; I take home YA
books to read. I think I get the better end of that deal.

And it keeps the TV remote out of my hands; an even better perk

Rough tracking: 7-15 hrs a week - 1-2 pages a minute:
