Question: what is the best way to read quicker? 

Answer: Practice. Read many books (non-reference) multiple times so that you can understand what's going on in the book. Then, read through the book again, faster, while fully retaining all comprehension. Ask questions to yourself and skim over the pages to find your answers. Questions such as, "Why is this character acting this way?" There might be an event that traumatized the person.\n\nHere's a good article on suggestions of speed reading: http://www.ucc.vt.edu/stdysk/suggest.html\n\nAlso, you can purchase speed reading courses. http://www.rocketreader.com/\n\nHope this helps.
