“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its shame.“ –Oscar Wilde This week is Banned Book Week, and here in Ohio our State Board of Education is marking the occasion by attacking Nobel-prize wining Ohio author Toni Morrison’s 1970 novel The Bluest Eye and recommending that it be banned from the suggested reading list for Ohio high schools.

Do you have some kind of speed-reading mutant power?
Yes. Yes I do.
My brother and I used to have competitions to see who could read a book fastest (same number of pages) and then would quiz each other on the plot (it had to be a book the other had already read) to make sure neither of us were cheating.
I got very fucking fast at it. Oh, and he’s 5 years older than me. I used to regularly beat him from age 10 or so onwards.
I once massively upset a guy on a 2-hour flight from Brisbane to Melbourne by reading The Da Vinci Code, cover to cover, during the flight (for the first time, too, I bought it in the airport bookshop). He got SO MAD, telling me he’d been reading the book for 2 months. Didn’t believe I’d actually read it properly.
I think I might have annoyed him even more by telling him it was hardly my fault he was a slow reader, but seriously, fuck that dude. Calling some woman you don’t even know a liar because she has a skill you don’t? That’s some shitty behaviour.
Thinking back, I should have just spoiled the ending for him. That would have been even MORE fun.
Speed-reading is a skill, and the more you practice, the better you get at it.
Give me the secret of anime speed reading...I have a huge TBR pile!
Warum man gute Bücher durchaus mehrmals lesen sollte und Blinkist und Speedreading mit großen #opportunitätskosten verbunden sind, erfährt du in meinem Artikel: "Warum ich 2017 Bücher mehrmals lese und du das auch tun solltest!"
Saw a video on reddit about speedreading and how you need to "quiet the voice inside your head" that reads the words out loud, and.... no? I followed along no problem all the way through to 900 words per minute, and the whole time I was reading the words out loud in my head what certainly felt like a normal pace. I wonder what's up with that?
I did learn from one of Feynman's autobiographies that some people "hear" numbers when they count and others "see" them, and depending on which way your brain works you can't also count and talk or read respectively. I'm definitely in the "hearing" category for pretty much all brain processing. Maybe I've done so much reading I just "hear" very fast too?
