Title: Could be the most helpful book that I've ever read
Review: I bought this book because I figured, "What's the worst that could happen?" The author claims that you can increase your speed by something like 3 to 8 times. I figured that if I even sped up by only like 20% then it would be completely worth it. I had no idea how much I would improve. The author says in the first lesson that after the drill I was about to do, most people increased their speed by 10-20%. I increased by about 35% on the FIRST DRILL. That was only like the 3rd chapter out of 32. On the initial reading test I scored 190 words per minute. It was on the low side of average. Today (got the book on Saturday...5 days ago)I scored 650 words per minute on the day's test. During one of the drills at the end of the chapter I had made it up to around 850 words per minute. I need to go join my town library because reading at this speed would make it too uneconomical to keep buying books.
