I have been struggling with the Reading section for the ACT for quite some time now and this book showed a lot of really good, yet simple tips to improve your score. Granted, this book doesn't go into the deep psychology of the reading section or anything like that, but it does help you create habits to get the score that you want. I recommend this as a base-line in your quest to conquer the ACT reading section.
This book is great if u are looking for a way to prepare for the ACT reading section. It shows the reader tips and trick to improve your score on the ACT. I also feel that people should read this book even if they have a few years to take the test because this book gives you more knowledge on reading. And for the people that don't like to read but want to get a better score, this book isn't a thick book! So bonus!
