Don't read out loud even inside your head. Let your visual processing hemisphere of your head do all the reading.

Basically the goal is to get as close to reading 1,000 words per minute as possible (essentially up to 2 pages/minute or 120 pages per hour on average). You literally can't do that if your brain is exerting a great deal of processing power to sounding out words even inside your head. When you do this you can slow down your reading speed all the way down to 100 words per minute which is perfect for talking but horrible for reading.

>year on one book
the fuck are you mentally retarded or what
read a chapter a day or some shit. you can read the whole lotr trilogy in a month if you dedicate an hour or so a night to it
find books you genuinely find interesting to read not just shit you are supposed to have read due to their status

I have a load of books to read but being a programmer has made me too good at skimming text and just reading what I find interesting.
Sometimes I read two pages and then wonder what the fuck I just read, so I have to go back and read it again. Or my thoughts wander and I'm just mindlessly looking at words right to left.
