Steps

1.
1
Find some time. Set aside a time each day, maybe just a half an hour or a full hour, just for reading. Maybe spend some time reading before you go to bed or on a weekend. Even if it's just that fifteen minute lunch break at work, set aside that little bit.

2
Find a quiet and secluded place to read. This will help you focus on the book and also ensure that you will not be disturbed as you read. Try your local library, they often have corners where one could pull up a chair to enjoy a decent novel.

Read your first chapter. Don't just skim through it, read it. Keep a notebook handy and write down the characters introduced and some words that you don't understand if it helps you remember what happened. Or, at the end of each chapter, write a chapter summary so that you can look back and remember what happened last!

Take it one chapter at a time, or if that overwhelms you, just take it four or five pages at a time. Split your reading up into sections, three or four pages, a chapter or two, etc. etc. If you get overwhelmed, you're likely to give up all together.

Reread, if needed. Don't be ashamed to have to reread the chapter if you forget something that you want to remember! When you reread, be sure to focus on the idea of the chapter or paragraph or page or whatever.

* Take your time, if you read through a novel in two days, you need to reread it. It takes time to grasp the concept of a book. Not to mention that you won't enjoy it as much if you skim through it!
