Hands up who had to start again when it started asking questions. 
Reading speed. How did you do?

I don't read books though, I don't find them enjoyable. I find reading anything is like reading an instruction manual. I don't visualise characters, situations, nor do I commit much to memory, so a few lines later I forgot what I just read.
Shame really as there are a few books I'd like to read, just every time I have tried, the above happens and I lose interest.
Managed to get the questions correct at least lol.

I read for several hours a day though, I don't watch much television (that said I enjoy watching the odd series or film). Usually if I'm vegging on the sofa it's with a book and some music on the in the background.
I like being able to read quickly if I'm reading something boring/ work related. A paper or a textbook or something.
But if I'm reading for pleasure I don't consciously think about the words, it's more like imagery in my head. I think the ability to read at speed certainly helps to keep up but reading like that is more about enjoyment, I don't particularly think about reading fast or slow.

35 days, 2 hours a day. Seems pretty accurate, it didn't take me long to get through last time I had a re-read.
Also, anyone else annoyed that the book series is referred to as 'Game of Thrones', rather than the proper name of A Song of Ice and Fire?

Not really. If I had a neckbeard I might.
