PSA to fast readers of the world

It takes many people, even people who like reading, about an hour to read 30-something pages from a novel. I bet you didn't know that.

I don't care.

I can finish 400 page novel in less than four hours with 75% minimum comprehension

@midnightsun Okay. I just thought you might be interested to know how much slower a lot of people are at reading.

What's your point? That people have various levels of given skills?

@Platoscave The point is to understand why it is that, even for some excellent readers, it is hard for them to keep up with others. They may have to put in triple the time you have to put in if they are going to keep up with you. This can affect how things like book clubs and courses, etc are designed.
