icarus_imbued asked: I’m a hopeless bibliophile; I love books and I love reading. I’ve got a stack of books I’m trying to get through (the top couple of books on the pile are Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Atlas Shrugged, and Freakonomics to satisfy the curious; I read all kinds of books) But I’m just not getting though them fast enough! It’s kind of frustrating sometimes. “So many books, so little time”, as they say.
Dose anyone have suggestion on how I can increase my reading speed? It’s just fine as is, I just want to read faster so I can get more book read in a shorter amount of time. Are there books on the subject? Are there [low cost] classes that I could take? Do you have any simple tips? I’d love to hear your input.

Randall asked: I’ve read in different books recommending using your hand as a pacer down a page to read faster, but I’ve also read at least one recommending not to and that you can read faster and more effectively by just using your eyes. Which one is true?

Patrino asked: Does anyone know how to speed read?
Iv heard of people reading a book a day because they can speed read. Is this effectively understanding or just a waste of time.
Anyone know how to learn?
Thanks all
