For those of you who have learnt to read faster do you still take it all in.

I did a little practice of reading groups of words at a time and not moving my vocal chords to silently say each word as I read. I found I could read faster, but it didn't really 'go in'. If I asked myself what the last paragraph was about I could only vaguely say - and that isn't very useful if you are reading an academic text or trying to pick up on the finer points of a novel.

For me reading is like making love to a beautiful woman. You could speed it up if you wanted to, but its better to take your time and really appreciate it.
