I am not really understanding why this daily limit is a problem. Are you all trying to read five books in a single day? Or even five in a single month? Some books I can easily read in a couple of days. The Harry Potter Books I soared through in two weeks. The entire series. Most books take me at least a couple of weeks each though. A couple - mostly books by Neil Stephenson, can easily take me a few months to get through, because they're very complicated books. Stephen Hawking's "A brief history of time" I had to stop after the first chapter and do a bunch of google searches for specific words to understand. I re-read that chapter a couple of times until the information clicked for me, and that took me a total of two months. Just to get through one chapter of one book. But when you're learning about Quantum Physics for the first time in your life and you don't have a background involving complex mathematics, it's to be expected.
Anyway - if you're not needing to actually read five books a month and just want to line something up for when you finish the one you're on, why not just take out one book, and a second one when you're halfway through the first?
