Good Advice for Slow Readers

John Starke:

For a few years now, I've used a reading plan that has helped me get through a pretty good number of books every month, despite my setback of being a slow reader. For the frustrated and overwhelmed readers, here are a few suggestions.

Here is an outline of his suggestions:

Read in 15 minute segments.
Get up 40 minutes earlier.
Use the odd times to read.
Read widely and more than one book at a time.
Work hard to finish a book.

You can read the whole thing for an explanation of each point.

The best book addressing issues like this, and more, from a Christian perspective is not yet published. But it will be this fall: Tony Reinke's Lit! A Christian Guide to Reading Books.
