you can really do speed read

I always thought speed read is somewhat a myth, or that you would always lost something in the words if you read too fast. I've always had this belief or shall I say misblief, before reading this book (listening to this book). From the method and strategies in this book, now I can say that I briefly know what it is to speed read a book, or at least how it should be done, and could be done. Becuase I listened to it while I was driving, I couldn't really practice the techniques introduced in this book. Then after I got to the office, I always forgot to test it, because it's usually early mornings are our routine daily meeting time, there's a lot planning and reporting to do in this meeting, and I just had to put everything off from my hand and just dive into the meetings. If it's not for the review prompt I probably would forgot to write this as well, but this is a great book i'd give you that. it's a comprehensive introduction of training your brain to speed read. I'd probably listen to some of the key parts again before practicing some techniques I learnt from it.

Interesting concept

This book provides a lot of knowledge about how exactly we receive and retain information when reading. As someone with adhd I found this to be highly informative and I learned a lot, highly recommend.

So interesting!!

I think it's ironic to listen to this book as an audiobook - lol - but I got a lot out of it. I've already tried some of the practices, and I think it could be a game-changer for me. Excellent narrator too.
