Would you want to be able to read faster?
I keep hearing these ads on AAR about reading faster... reading 10 books in in the same time that 1 used to take.

I don't know. It scares me thinking how many more books I'd need to buy. I already buy A LOT of books!
OMG! What if I ran out of books to read?!! :scared:

1. I'd like that.
I have stacks of unread books at home. I'd love to have the ability to speed read.

3. I think I'd just like to have more time to read...
Of course, if I wasn't on DU so much I suppose I'd have that time. :)

2. I already read pretty quickly. I do like to enjoy my books, though, so
I think reading even faster would detract from that. So no, I don't want to read any faster than I already do. :P

5. I'd worry about missing a lot if I read too fast.
It's nice to see so many here are readers too! :)
