I did my Masters at a whole college built around this "Great Books" approach. I haven't read this book but interested to hear if you like it. I would say that the first "How's" come before you even start reading: 1. Picking the right book 2. Finding the right translation 3. Knowing who you can discuss it with :)

Need to read this, I wanna learn how to read a book. Just need to learn how to read a book so I can read this right. That’s cool, I’ll read this and learn how to read a book. Ah damn, first need to learn how to read a book to get real value from this one. Thankfully, I can just read this… Okay, think I’m broken

Insightful, but sometimes dry, book. Has saved me a lot of time in everything I’ve read since.
