I can only tell you what works for me.
I read a LOT. Here's my method. BTW....I always read to learn.
1)Skim through the Table of Contents
2)Skim through the Chapters that interest me or I think are important to get a feel for the content.
3)Read Chapters I choose. As I'm reading, I'm highlighting and taking notes.
4)At the end of each Chapter, I Summarize it.
At some point in the future, I review the books I want. Everything is highlighted, notes taken, and my own Summary at the end of each chapter. I don't re-read the whole book. I learn well this way. Hope this helps.
