K.D. Absolutely (oldkd) | 6065 comments Shall we start rather on Monday, July 23rd? You can start reading on Saturday or Sunday and post your first message on Monday.

Do you have the book? If yes, please set the reading pace, e.g., 1 or 2 chapters/day.

Then you can also create the thread. It should be up no later than Thursday, July 19th.

There are 47 chapters, but they are relatively short ones. We can probably have 7 chapters everyday for a week.
