Synopsis

Smart, funny, inspiring and genuinely useful and very lovely’ Tom Chatfield, author of Critical Thinking
How do you read? Are you someone who has to finish every book they start? Do you scribble notes in your books? Do you worry that you read 'too slowly' or that other people 'are better readers' than you? Do you keep a book in your car, 'just in case'?
Even those of us who are avid readers don't think much about the habits and assumptions we bring to the way we read. In this short, wise, and funny little book, Nick Parker encourages us to think differently about how we read – and in doing so, find ways to read more freely.
'This lovely little book has liberated me from habits and assumptions that I didn’t even know I had. I never imagined that there were so many ways to read, or realised that I entertained so few of them. With a few little nudges, Nick has changed that for me, for ever.’ Robert Poynton, author of 'Do Pause'.
