I plod through novels since I get more pleasure that way, although I do tend to finish them in good time by avoiding unnecessary distractions such as sleep. I can usually remember most details (the P.Obrien series tends to get a bit mixed in my head though!) but my idea of pronunciation of names seems way off the mark when I hear other people/movies say them (I actually have Milamber correct in my noggin!). Of course my way of saying them is the correct one ;-)
