Hi

I am learning to sight read and have a book of pieces that get progressively harder and I was wondering if people think it is best to really have each one perfect before moving on to the next.
Some are kind of dull, I know the notes but can only play them falteringly - I really want to get to the pieces that interest me or stretch me more but I am wondering whether moving on before they are perfect will have a detrimental effect later on or not.

thanks
