Can you connect with the book you are reading? Can you imagine yourself in it? Does it remind you of things from your life? If not, maybe it's just not the book for you.
The process of reading is when a person reads text and their inner voice makes connections between the words, and their life and prior knowledge. The more closely the reader connects to the text, the higher the level of comprehension.
At times connecting is simple. At others, especially when the text is not in an area that the reader has background knowledge, comprehension is difficult. To be a better reader, think about how the story relates to your life.
Readers should concentrate on their inner voice and connections. (from The Reading Workshop)
