Roughly how many books have you read? If possible name them all to be judged.

Define book. Define read. What counts?
I’ve read somewhere between 40 and 200.

Less than 10. But I have plans on finishing at least 20 by the end of the year.

853 since I started counting but I'm old and had been reading at a roughly similar rate for a decade or so before that.

20 years of age.
Of all books in my life, probably between 50 and 100, if we include children's books that I read growing up.
I've read 4 so far this year.

Age: 32. Read: 1,000. However, I have only read a few fiction books this year. Shifted careers. Now in healthcare. So I have spent more time reading, and listening to, physiology and pathology books and videos. Maybe in a year or two I will get back into reading.

Genuinely have no idea. I've got 100-150 books on my shelves, though that doesn't include ones I borrowed or got rid of. Read a ton when I was younger before pretty much stopping cold in my early teens. Then in my late teens/early twenties worked my way back up to around a book a month. Now, in my late twenties, I read anywhere from 2-4 a month depending on the book's length.

This is hard to answer because I don't really even know what counts. In the past three years (when I started reading seriously) I've probably read somewhere around 50 books, maybe slightly more or less.
My most recent books read are:
The Pentateuch, The Republic, Beyond Good and Evil, The Paideia Proposal, Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals, Politics
Currently reading the Iliad.
