Snail's pace

Wow, I'm onto my 3rd novel of 2010. It took me two months to get through the book I just finished (The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters). Granted, it was 750 pages long, but still, that's pretty pathetic. Today I started Special Topics in Calamity Physics; it's 500 pages long. At my current rate, I'll still be reading it when I go to the US.
