Is this normal or are my comprehension skills just poor? The first half of a book I’ll read 20 pages an hour and the second half I can get up to 40 per hour. Its the first book I’ve read by this author and it almost feels like I’m trying to decipher a different language. I have never been the best with comprehension and have ADHD so I have found myself re reading pages constantly.

    I loved that it really tested my vocabulary and focus, definitely had to slow down significantly and re-read at points.

    The book is challenging but is also one of the most incredible pieces of literature I’ve ever read.

    I’m over 30 and I’ve read a fair amount + I’m fluent in Spanish so even with all of that it was difficult at times.
