Is Speed reading worth?
>pic semi-related
The biggest problem on speeding up the reading is the "amnesia" that it causes when you only absorve the message, but easyly forgets about passages and words.

Not OP but I thought /lit/ was about reading a book every 3 days or something highly active like that. For me, it takes about 20 hours give or take to read 4-500 pages. I'm able to find the time for reading daily, but it takes me 2-3 weeks to finish a book often. I feel that I read liesurely and that is my point.

Yeah that's 3 days worth of reading for the average /lit/ user.
