lorenzana 's review for:

10 Days to Faster Reading by Abby Marks-Beale, The Princeton Language Institute
2.0

Lightning McQueen.

I liked this book: three stars justifies that. Its lessons were helpful and insightful for its exact purpose. It didn't surpass any expectations but got the job done.

The book gives exercises and practical advice (like pacers, previewing, having a purpose) that I enjoyed going through. I tested my speed and comprehension with these drills, practicing different techniques that got my scores up as I went along.

Admittedly, I read the book in 5 days, pausing when the author said to take a break (blasphemy, I know). But my speeds still went up thanks to the book's practical and straightforward tips.

I highly recommend if anyone wants to improve their speed at least by a bit.
