So Staples created a pretty cool quiz where you can find out your reading speed and how it stacks up against the national average and some other benchmarks like 3rd grader and college professor.
I recommend clicking the gear before you start and upping the length of the text a bit. It's easier to read more quickly once you have a chance to sink in a bit, I find. The initial setting actually made my score far lower!
Also, click 'next page' after it gives you the initial score because it will tell you how quickly you could read a bunch of classic novels. (The following 'next page' is where they try to sell you an e-reader).

My result was 654 words per minute.
So, how quickly do you read?
BRB, going to go read War and Peace in 16 hours.
