I thought I knew how to read books, but I was wrong. My mental model of reading looked something like this: The words go from the page, to your brain, and now you have knowledge. The author is lecturing and you are listening to all of this great information and getting smarter.
huh I never thought about reading books at different levels of depth, one reason I read less non-fiction books than I’d like is because try to understand all of them deeply (which just makes reading extremely slow for me)
