Yes, you have to write that many words. It's lucky you didn't pick Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
The catch? You only have five seconds to write each word. So if the book you picked has 200 pages, that's 1000 seconds. Then use this converter to turn it into minutes.

----------Okay, I picked "Crime and Punishment" (been on the bookshelf for 15 years, I'm still searching for the gumption to plow through it).
544 pages. x5 = 2,720 seconds / 60 = 45 minutes.
Can that be right? 45 minutes to write 544 words? I like it. Be back soon with a report.
...Edited to report: 701 words in 29 minutes! That was a great prompt. Thanks!
The book I picked out was My Life In France by Julia Child which has 414 pages. That gave me 34 minutes to write 414 words. When time was finished I had written 746 words. It would have been better, not that I'm at all disappointed with what I wrote, if i hadn't gotten a phone call in the middle of typing. Next time I'll turn off my phone before getting to work.
