I usually read in my head (subvocalize) but at some point when I'm reading a fiction book I start to get really into the story and create scenes for what is going on for instance if they are in a garage I feel like I can see it if its described well so I don't think I read in my head at that point because it would seem to be too many things going on at once. I wish I could figure out how I actually do that so I could do it all the time because before I know it I'm 40 or so pages into the book so I'm definitely reading faster then but if something doesn't grab my attention I can't get in-the-zone.

Its always fun when they make a movie out of a book I read because I watch it and think "That's so not [insert characters name]". My worst experience with that was Along Came A Spider, Morgan Friedman is not Alex Cross in any world, I had to turn the movie off after 30 minutes or so it was just so unbelievable to me (I don't think the movie got great reviews anyway so I dont think I missed much, I could be wrong though)
