This is how I read a book at the moment:

• Research FIRST
  • Read recommendations, reviews & rating on Amazon to make sure I only read worthy books
  • Add them to my reading list if necessary
• Finish the whole book within 3 days since getting it
  Otherwise, I know I won’t read it thoroughly after losing that momentum
  • Finish 50-80% on the first day
  • I focus to learn 3-5 BIG lessons from the book
    – no more just reading for “fun”.
    (added on Aug, 2016)
• Update my library on Trello
  • I believe the order of the books I read is very important to how (much) I learn!
  • Categorize the book: which category it belongs to?
• Review them occasionally or when I need to improve knowledge in certain areas
  • Review what is left with me from those books
    by writing down 1-2 BIG IDEAS (max.) from each book per review.
