Most of the time I vary the speed of the book as I read it. I think thats quite common (?) The last book I read had over a thousand pages, and some chapters which were not really interesting could just be skimmed without a huge loss of plot/story/detail.
Also, I can see how if you have multiple hobbies/kids/etc you'd want to speed up your reading because you have limited time.
