Bird Box: A Novel | Josh Malerman

My wife, @courtney shames me by reading so incredibly fast. She ripped through this in 15-20 minute chunks during her commute. Three days in she announces "These are the last ten pages."
It took me over a week to read this. Any other slow readers out there? #slowreaders #pickupthepace

britt_brooke 🙋🏼 I've always considered myself a slow reader. I say every word in my head as I go. 7y
Pete I read at a spoken pace too 7y
BookishFeminist Despite how many books I read a year I'm a pretty slow reader too (but I've gotten slowly faster). This happens with me and my partner @becausetrains all the time. I will say "hey we should read this together!" He's done within a few hours and yet a few days later I'm still plugging away at it. ??? 7y

Caterina I'm a slow reader, but I'm also better at close reading than most of my classmates. My recall of quotes, passages, details, and pages on which these can be found is also good. Maybe less useful for quick reads, but definitely a worthwhile trade-off for college classes! 7y

Gayan I've always been a slow reader. 7y
