Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Not counting this book, I own 5-speed reading books. I have read all of them and followed all of the instructions in each book. None of them, not a one, worked. This book caught my eye because I own Drawing on The Right Side of The Brain, which is an excellent book. I read this book and followed all of the instructions and exercises in it. The right side of the brain method worked very well. So I thought it might just work with reading also. I found this book to be very interesting. The concept and material is very different from any other speed reading book I have read. The idea seems pretty straightforward and easy to implement. This book does not regurgitate any of the old, useless material found the overwhelming majority of speed reading books, all of this information is new. I find the theory to be very practical and sensible. This is my initial review of the book since I have only just moments ago finished reading it for the first time. Yes, that's right, I intend to read it a second time to work on the examples again for practice. I also intend to make use of the right side of the brain free "phrase reading" course online given at the end of the book to help me thoroughly test this theory. So my initial take on this book is worth 4-stars, which could change either up or down depending on the results of my fully testing the theory in actual practice. When I have completed my test I shall update this review accordingly. This is not the Evelyn Wood method repackaged. It is an entirely different method. 11/132017 I have been working with the free tools that the author has on his website. I find the method easy to implement and the tools are quite useful to my progress. I am having good success with this method, which is something I cannot say about the previous five books I have read.
