It's not a huge investment for someone who reads frequently. It took me 8 months to read them all and I wasn't going super fast.
I'm not judging someone who read the entire series or those who did it multiple times. People are free to enjoy what they want. Regardless of that, doing 8 months multiplied by even 2-3 times is a considerable chunk of a human lifespan. It explains takes like "I don't like the adaptation because it made too many changes" and it needs to be put into perspective. I've elaborated more on this in my other comment.
