How to absorb more information when reading?

​Most of us read to acquire knowledge from innovating and eye-opening plays, novels and thrillers, but for sure reading can be for pleasure. Nevertheless, this article will teach you how to get the best of any books that you read.
Whenever you read a new book; all of that fresh information is absorbed or ignored by your brain. You can also learn new things from books, and processing that huge chunk of original data makes you reflect upon your past experiences and see them in a distinct point of view. However, this will only succeed if you truly remember particular features from the books that you read, and the new knowledge and thoughts will come from the tiniest details of what you leaf through. Consequently, what really matters now is the quantity, but even then, how much do you really get from your reading time?
Is it worth your time?
Usually, it is easy to figure out if a book is interesting enough for you to read, the most bright and gifted ones tend to stand out in the middle of the ordinary. If you are not sure if it is worth reading, take a quick glance at the blurb, or scroll through the pages and chapters to see if it attracts you. This does not mean reading every single word of the first few pages but maybe flip through the book to be certain that you are gripped. Do not waste your time gawking at common scripts when there are bewildering admirable books wishing to be read.
Summarize
Whenever you finish a book, you should attempt to summarise it in a few sentences, that way you would have to pick out the most important facts about the book. Consider the following ideas when trying out your own summary:
  • What are the main occurrences?
  • How would I describe this synopsis to someone that has not read it?
  • What are the different personalities of all the different characters and who are they?
When you have finished your summary, it will be a lot easier to go back and read it instead of reading the entire book again.
