Reply to comment by 0YaKnow in Do you skip or skim when reading fiction? by GraniteGeekNH

I don't care what other people do, but I would never skim. I mostly read to enjoy good prose and cool ideas, so just getting the gist of the plot isn't really beneficial

I get that. I would never skip in a fiction book I don’t think.

You just gave the example of Stephen King?
