I do the visual reading thing that is mentioned in the article. I get a sort of "movie in my head" when I'm reading, and often become unaware of the words on the page. Sometimes I have to pause to let the action catch up to where I am on the page, and sometimes I'll be focused on one character in a story and miss incidental things that happen in the book to another character.
I can read just under a couple of pages of a standard paperback in about a minute.
It's a pleasant way to spend a few hours.
I don't read non-fiction like that, though. It just doesn't happen, and I don't know how to make it happen.
