10 Days to Faster Reading

I’ve just finished reading ‘10 days to faster reading‘ and to be honest I was a little disappointed.   There were some really useful techniques and tips on improving your reading, and the fact it suggests many techniques to try and you can pick the ones that help you.

The book uses the metaphor of a car race throughout which becomes tedious and does seem to leak in places, especially in a UK market where most people don’t drive automatics, and the endorsement for drinking coffee and using your mobile whilst driving probably isn’t the greatest idea.

There was one particular ‘day’, Day 5 I think, which really just made no sense and did nothing to improve my confidence in reading it.

I would suggest that How To Read (pdf) would probably be a better place to start.
