        This article discussed reading methods and styles to interpret texts. It points out what readers should be doing while they read to comprehend work easily. One method that is useful is to annotate your novel or shorter piece of literature you are reading. I began using this method at the beginning of the year. My grade school let us read in whatever way we wanted, we just had to be able to take a quiz for comprehension. Annotating helps a lot when you read vital information in a book and do not want to lose it, like highlighting in a textbook. One thing that the article touches upon that I need to improve on is my focus while reading something. If I am not interested I will put little energy or thought into the book and miss information that creates a snowball of confusion. I believe that I use most of the reading methods while some still need work. This article was a great tool to help me evaluate myself as a reader and notify me what I must improve on.
