Venal....never heard that one before.

I wish I read faster. Not that it's really a skill I need, but I always thought it'd be nice to read really fast.

I'm surprised this hasn't been said already, but writing (anything... like a diary, or even this message board) on a consistent basis will make you a faster reader.

Conversely, reading more will make you a better writer.
