I’m a slow reader. Always have been. When I read, I say every word aloud in my mind. I’ve been reading online that this “subvocalization” actually slows reading WAY down and doesn’t help with reading comprehension (once you know how to read). Is this true, and if so, how can I read without subvocalization? I’d like to become a better reader that can read books in weeks, not months. Thanks for any help!

      Some books are just meant to be read aloud too. I read to my cat, he starts purring and falls asleep and when I stop reading he wakes up and tries to get me to start again.
