How can you consider reading… by day?

Has anyone ever read a book?

Can you use something like this, in the English language?

How can I help somebody?

Might you ever have read is OK. It’s asking if they have read it in the past (NOT still reading it). What are the ungrammatical differences between Might you have read and Might you have ever had read? If I need to know if they were in the process of still reading it, you could ask: “Might you have been reading that book when you fell asleep? Who could ever have said that you would read a book while falling asleep? ”

Is there any simple solution that “is appropriate in a given case”?
