Your reading

How to use it

The planner spreads the pages you have left evenly across your reading days, then keeps the last two days for review if you want them. Rest days are skipped, so the daily number is what you really have to read.

  • Read once, properly. Close the book after each section and write down the main points from memory. The re-reading guide explains why this beats a second read.
  • Use the review days to recall, not re-read: skim your notes and test yourself on the main points.
  • Behind schedule? Put in the pages you’ve read so far and the plan resets from today.
