Reading aloud

The only way to read certain books.
If you subvocalise Ulysses or Finnegans Wake, you're missing half the fun.

This is well known already but I'm talking about doing it in general. I've read that it has a lot of positive things like increasing your comprehension and memory but who knows.

I was actually thinking about this the other day. I enjoy reading aloud to other people.
Also, I think I'm going to get my gf to read aloud to me.

I was psychotic for a brief period during the beginning of 2015. During that time I was only able to keep track of reading by doing so aloud. I remember little of those works but it kept my mind occupied.

It's good for improving your speech patterns as well. If you watch people speak you can see how much effort they are putting into speaking and they bare their teeth, and snarl, and wiggle their jaw around oddly. It's because they were never taught how to speak properly.
