I start at the beginning and go to the end with no looking at the last page. I've always been a very fast reader..maybe it's a South Australian thing?-, but I no longer feel I have to finish everything I start as I once did. I'm currently reading Atlantic by Simon Winchester, a huge book which deserves careful reading; when I need a bit of light relief I'm alternating it with EF Benson's Miss Mapp.. an old friend.
There are courses you can take to improve the speed of your reading if you want, worked for my husband.
