I admire your ability to follow-through on this challenge! It's very inspiring.
I've gotten through about half of Scientific Advertising so far, but feel like I barely remember what I've read. Were you doing anything extra (stuff like taking notes maybe) to increase memory retention while you were reading in step one?
Notes are the 3rd part of the challenge. You'll find that you'll actually remember most of the general concepts and philosophy being taught even if most of the detail gets forgotten, I found it quite subconscious. It does get a bit mechanical reading through the books (especially RC Letter book) and much of the style seems out of date or doesn't really sell to you like it did to people back then. The thing you have to keep reminding yourself is that these ad's and techniques DID sell like crazy! Keep your eye out for why these ads were selling and what underlying psyche they were tapping in to, doing that at least helped prevent me from blasting through pages without taking anything in
