Oh wow probably hundreds! I read the books when I was about 8 and apparently I've had a pretty large vocabulary ever since so that's probably where all the new words came from. The writing and descriptions of people and places are just so beautiful, and its always easier to learn words that way, when you like them and want to know them.

I can't think of any particular words I learnt from reading the books though, I think it was more words in terms of context, if that makes any sense.
