PhotoReading lets you savor novels. I still PhotoRead them the details are much clearer and I catch the subtle clues that I seem to have the knack of missing with traditional reading yet I finish the book 3 times faster. I do go through novels at a leisurely pace however I don't care for sitting through a moview for more than 3 hours and I tend to read a novel in one sitting to savour the story this meant that I often spent 8 to 12 hours straight on a novel with traditional reading. Getting that down to 90 minutes or 3 hours is great fun and I get to savour it.
For novels what is usually your purpose for reading it. To enjoy the story to see how it unfolds to lose yourself in an adventure for a while. Purpose is naturally different if it is "required reading" the outcome required is usually different than merely being entertained by the book.
