I asked my partner how many pages I had to read before I gave up. He (jokingly?) said 252 pages, 1 paragraph and the first 6 words of the first sentence. So I did that and then it seemed like I might as well finish. But that is THE ONLY way I finished and I still think maybe I should have just put it down.(less)
