it's okay OP, it's not a race or a contest
I'm a pretty slow reader. Sometimes takes me quite a few hours to get over 40 pages. Dunno, it's not that bad. Spend less time on 4chan ftw

Reading fast is a meme. Most people who do it are literally skimming. Go your own pace and take the time to think about what you're reading.
