Reading a book is a lot like making love to a woman.

start halfway though it, it will go faster

>> No.12256706

Start from page 145. It's important. Read only odd-numbered pages, and skip every 5th line. Once you read the ending, go back and read the first 144 pages, but this time only even-numbered pages, skipping every 7th line.
Trust me on this.

You need to pick it firmly, taking care not to bend the spine too much. Then gently prise it open. Finally get your nose right in there so you can smell it

Skip it and just pretend you've done it

Just stare at the middle pf every page for 10 seconds, trying to absorb as much information as you can, and then read the page number. That way you're done in three hours.
