15 minutes, yea though depends on the size of the book, the complexity of the material, and the level of retention I need. But I am trained in speed reading and yea, I could given those caveats.

For some of us the diametric opposite is true. Irrespective of the size, complexity and retention of the material we are slow slow slow readers.

I expect that to be the case for anyone who didnt explicitly train to learn how to speed read.

I tried a number of times to develop ‘the speed reading skill’ however they have always ended in failure. I prefer to take ‘a leisurely meandering stroll through the countryside on a lazy summer evening’ rather than an Olympic one hundred metre sprint when it comes to reading. I have come to the realisation that is who I am and more likely than not I will stay this way.
