I read a book a day. During my school days, from the age of 7 to 18, I read 2 books a day during school time and 4 books a day during vacation time.

One of the thngs that people don't tell you is that you only learn to read once. After that, your eyes recognize the word and the minute your eye sees it, you understand it.

The more you read, the faster that recogntion is, and the faster you read.
