Maybe I am lucky - I enjoy books more if I read them fast (used to be awful at school 
when we had to read along with the class (-8 ).

I'm picking up my book as close to 9.00 am (Eastern Australian release time - same as 
midnight London time) as possible. I will then have to drop off the 12 year old I am 
taking to get her copy (it means I won't be home for ten minutes later than I planned, but 
she threatened to torture my kitty if I didn't take her!), be home as quickly as I can be 
(maybe by 9.30, if I can get one of the first books) return home and then sit down and 
read it, accompanied by pizza and pepsi (this is my favourite way to read). I will not stop 
reading except for brief periods of travel to the Pepsi-elimination station.
