We all have to read text books, schoolbooks or manuals sometimes. Most of us don’t enjoy it too much. Over the years I have discovered there are three distinct types of these books
1. Ultra sticky
2. Just right
3. Ultra slippy
Ultra sticky are the ones where each word is so sticky it takes ages to move on to the next word. Typically though, you do retain something. But god! It takes forever.
In ‘Just Right’ books each word holds you up just long enough for it to sink in. reading is fun and you feel better for reading it.
With an Ultra Slippy all the words become one long string and your eyes slide along each line without any hindrance. The words flash beneath your eyes and before you know it you have slid to the end of the line. Often you find yourself having to climb back to the top of the paragraph or even page to try again.
