Here is the interesting thing about reading books, I once thought reading books and remembering everything about the text is the goal; However over time I’ve learned there is value in having read the book, understanding the material and then you know where to reference the information should you need it in the future.

Often reading good books is less helpful than it could be because the books answer questions you don't yet have.

Reading and practicing is key.
