Reading is an excellent hobby for relaxation. It can help reduce stress and expand your knowledge on various topics.<|im_end|>

That sounds great. What's a good way to get started with reading, especially if I haven't read much before?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Start by choosing a book that interests you, whether it's fiction, non-fiction, or a mix of both. You can also try setting aside a specific time each day to read, even if it's just 10-15 minutes.<|im_end|>

I've heard of a technique called'speed reading.' Is that a good technique for beginners?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Speed reading can be helpful, but for beginners, it's often more beneficial to focus on comprehension and enjoyment. As you become more comfortable with reading, you can explore speed reading techniques to improve your pace.<|im_end|>
