If you are reading novels for school. Literary review.
Activate first in layers as you would a non-fiction book.

PhotoRead, activate till it gels, then rapid read. rapid reading is an activation technique (optional activation technique).

During the activation layers your purpose would be to learn, theme, era, plot, characters, moral of the story.

In rapid reading (which consist of all activation techniques) you work from beginning to end. This is the equivalent of a final skim reading.

When reading literature normally you would read it first slowly, then a second time a bit faster and a 3rd time to skim through to help remember the key elements of the story. PhotoReading you do it in reverse. Time works out 6 hrs first read, 3 hrs 2nd read and 1 hour third read.

PhotoReading . About 6 minutes the first session, 2 to 3 hours the second and 30 minutes the 3rd.
