>> How many books can you write per second?

On my laptop, using modern tools backed by AI? ... many.

>> How how many books per second can you read to influence and change your personal style?

Thanks now to AI, hundreds. I can plug the output of the book-reading AI into the input of the tool I use to write my books and thereby update my personal style to incorporate all the latest trends. Blame the idiots who are paying me for my books.
