Dont rush reading. It requires reflection and patience and should be done as long as it is enjoyable. Then take a short break and let the information swill around your head for some minutes before starting over. I have seen testimonies of people 'speed reading' the whole of Doyle Routing TCP/IP Vol 1 n a weekend. The fools.

It has a dual benefit of breaking up the reading in addition to getting the knowledge from your brain to your fingertips.

It is a lot easier to follow after you have read Lammles books and watched the CBTs. I didn't even buy the cisco press books until i had read most of Lammles book and watched a lot of CBTs. It helps to have a good grasp of the basics before you pick up the cisco press books. The only chapter i didn't bother with in the cisco press book was subnetting as id already mastered it

If you know how things work in a network, it's hard to read a book like Odom's OCG, so it's much better to read some shorter study guide (CCNA Exam Prep, Dummies or Todd's book...). The OCG is good and better for beginners, who don't know anything about these topics.
