I would consider myself a moderately fast reader, but I MUST read
each and every word, no skimming whatsoever.
This is probably why I catch typo and grammar mistakes in almost every book that I read.
When reading my Sci-fi books, I must also ENUNCIATE (in the out-loud portion of my mind?) all of the
strange alien names, each and every time I come across them. I don't know why I must do this, I can't just start giving nicknames to characters in a book.
When reading murder mysteries or psychological thrillers I must keep track of each character, what their occupation is and what relationship they have to each other. I used to do this with pen and paper, so as not to miss a clue along the way, but now I'm adding notations in my PRS700 which I can refer back to when an old character suddenly reappears, or there are just too many characters to keep track of! I also like to mark the spot when I think I have figured out "who did it".
WDE.
