every time

Hi, I would be very glad if you could help me with the following sentence.
Every time I read this book, I felt very happy.
Does this sentence mean that I read the whole book from beginning to end or does it express the activity of reading? Thank you very much in advance.

It suggests that you read the whole book. If it were the activity, the sentence would be this: Every time I was reading this book, I felt very happy.

  • It suggests that you read the whole book.
