Improving My Reading Comprehension and Speed (Challenge) That Reading Guy 2022-12-18 | For the next three weeks I will be challenging myself to read 4 times the amount of books I normally read in a week by reading really fast in order to force my brain to adapt and catch up. I see and read every word but my brain won't comprehend everything initially. My goal is to at least double my reading speed because I know it is possible to reader deeper and read faster than my current rate and I am determined to improve it.I chose books that I am interested in but don't think will blow me away. Books I think I can read once and enjoy but don't expect to go back to them. They will be my springboard for this challenge. Here are the four books for this week: The End of the European Era by Gilbert and LargeThe White Tiger by Aravind AdigaGreen Hills of Africa by Ernest HemingwayThe Cure for Catastrophe by Robert Muir-Wood
