Speed Reading

By chance, this book has just over 500 pages. Just like the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement. 

Although, in fairness, the font here is probably larger and there are overall fewer words to read. And it's a decent story, so is more easily read. But still... 500 pages. Could you read it all, by tomorrow afternoon? Sufficiently well to be able to comment on the story, its characters, the plotline...?

500 pages, if you did nothing but read - no sleep, no pee breaks, no food or drink - in 12 hours (let's be kind). Forty pages per hour. That's really quite a decent bookworm habit you've got there. Taking notes too? Let's be fair, the future of your entire country depends on this.

Do you think they're speed reading? Do you think they're reading it at all?
