A friend of mine recommended a book on George Washington (Joesph Ellis). I've been studying language recently, and decided to take a little breather and have some fun reading for a change, so I bought the book.

I photoread it last night. My purpose was to discuss the book with my friend, and while I previewed I wrote down a few question and areas of interest.

Now I have started looking through the book in-between sunday morning chores, and I find myself with a new purpose, one I should have asked to start with - how does George rank with other presidents?

Should I photoread the book again with this new purpose, or should I just continue on with that new purpose in mind?

Nope, no need to PhotoRead the book again. You've found the angle of discussion with the with a mind probing question. Seems to me that, that is what the book has a lot to say about.

Your change of purpose isn't a change at all. It's a stromg mind probimg question. What are you going to do with the information how George ranks with the other Presidents? Your origninal purpose - discuss it with a friend.
