I speed read the Tribes book by Seth Godin. That was my first ever speed-reading attempt, and i have to say, it was rather exhausting, even though i got through the book in just a few hours.

On the other hand, when ive used techniques from "How to read a book", the process has been much slower but i've felt ive gotten a lot more from the book on first read without having to go back a number of times. Its a pretty difficult artform though.

Great suggestion. I just added "How to read a book" to my books to read list.

It is a great book, with a very disciplined method of reading. It makes reading take too long though, and you'll get frustrated with how little books you've read and start skipping steps and adapt your own reading method.

Well, that's what I did.
