i managed to steamroll through it in about a day (combination of no computer + no television) which i don't recommend as it is a very voluminous book--it's one of the largest i have in physical form. basically guaranteed you'll get some value of out of it though if you've liked Graeber's previous work, either as a reference text or as a reading experience (it seems amenable to being used as both).
