draav 's review for:

How to Read a Book: The Classic Guide to Intelligent Reading by Mortimer J. Adler, Charles Van Doren

DID NOT FINISH

---

I mostly just picked it up as a joke book. Wasn't really interesting. While skimming I noticed the points were very similar to my technical writing class: read the intro, read the summary, skim through it once, then skim through again in detail researching anything you don't understand (which is incidentally how I read this book). I didn't see much about how to apply this to fiction though.
