do expert programmers read lots of book?

it seems the only way to reach satori is to read lots of books I have lying around..I have K&R, Expert C: Deep Secrets, and 2 Perl Oreilly books...would an expert really have to read all these or am I just wasting my time if I dont know it magically :( ...How many programming books do expert programmers usually read in a year or a month?

and I already know what book I'm supposed to be reading..

I make sure to go to work on a bus or train. Why? So I can spend my time reading books (or take a nap). I average about one technical book a month.

I try to read books that are dramatically different from what I'm familiar with. I'm currently reading a trio of usability books, next will probably be some Haskell, then Programming Erlang, then Refactoring, then Lisp (SICP, Lisp in Small Pieces), then Thinking in Forth, then...

You get the idea. Yes, I have a long way to Satori.
