It is okay to read slowly
I am going to read this chapter again, even if everyone else has finished.
I need to pause and think about what just happened in this story.
I do not care how many pages they read; I am enjoying this one.
I am going to look up that word instead of skipping past it.
I will read the same series twice before starting something new.
I read slowly because I am building a world in my head, not racing through it.
