Reading Speed

What should be read slowly and what should be read quickly? 

Perhpaps books, which often take longer to write (and thus are presumably more thought out) should be read more slowly to enjoy the diction as opposed to newspapers, magazines, and online articles which are often writen quickly and to sell as much as possible.

More specifically on books, perhaps poetry and classics should be read more slowly than things such as romance novels, travel tales and other types of books where comprehensive absoprtion and lingering is not necessary.

Any thoughts?
