Customer Reviews

definite improvement, but not 600 wpm
This book helped me eliminate many poor reading habits like regression and reading every word. I improved from 200 wpm to about 315 wpm, which is great. It's just not 600 wpm like some of these reviews said they experienced after reading this book.

But even still, I strongly recommend this book.

It worked for me
10 Days to Faster Reading was definitely worthwhile reading. I am not afraid to read and consider myself a quick reader. To my surprise, reading at my normal pace, I was only at 265 WPM. This is quite average. I know that I can read fast when I have to, but I never had any strategies to follow and found myself just thumbing through the pages, retaining no information.

10 Days introduced me to multiple methods for reading faster, a few of which seem to work well with me: using a pacer, keywords/key phrases, and previewing. My WPM is now well over 450. And that is after only 10 days, with much improved accuracy.

The only drawback to this book is that it provide a large amount of information over a relatively short time frame. I will remember what worked for me right away, but probably will not remember enough to try out some of the other techniques that take longer to learn.

Good Sale
The book arrived in the estimated time and in the condition advertised by this seller.
