That's exactly the way that I proofread books. It's the only way I can avoid "skimming", which, of course, misses all the fine details. But it is, of course, much slower than normal reading. When I'm proofing a book, I get through perhaps 10 pages in an hour; when I read normally, it's probably at least 5x that.
