How to get siri to READ text messages out loud

Does any one know EXACTLY how to get siri to READ text messages out loud ?

Ask :
While the text is still unread, ask Siri "read my new text message". If it understand but for some reason doesn't read the content, then you have to reset Siri. Siri is not perfect yet. It is still a "beta"
How do I get siri to READ my text messages ? What do I "say " to siri ?
Answer :
Turn iPhone completely of. Once off. Hold down the home button and the on/off button for 10 second. Then let go. :) reset complete.
You need to have Settings->Notifications->Messages->Show Preview set to ON or it will not read the message unless the phone is unlocked.

Just reading through this post and the best way to Reset SIRI is to go to Settings>General>Siri and then turn SIRI off. This erase's anything SIRI has learn't about you, all you have to do then is turn SIRI back on and it is reset. It is not necessary to reset the iPhone itself.

SIRI can only read back unread Txt messages, if you have opened a Txt message and already read it you can not have SIRI read it back to you. Don't forget SIRI is still in BETA and will take a little while while Apple tweek this technology.
