My name is Phil and I am an ebook addict (or did I just read that somewhere?).

I really must go on a speed reading course if I am to finish all of my books in my lifetime! I even have around 500 novels in French to read when I think that my French is fluent enough to be able to read at the same spped as I do in English.

Unfortunately, reading the various threads on MobileRead just makes me interested in even more books.

Talking of speed reading, I remember Woody Allen saying that he took one of those courses and managed to read the whole of War and Peace in just 20 minutes. When asked what the book was about, he replied "Russia"!
