So i'm reading a book on my ebook reader, and i'm thinking, hey this plots not very continuos, but i assumed i wasn't paying attention and had missed things.
Anyway after reading 300 pages i opened the file on the computer and i knoticed that only even number chapters where there.
Must be some glitch in the program i used to convert the .lit to a txt,m or a flaw in the original.

So now i'm going to have to re read the whole thing

I skim quickly enough that I could probably get the same effect from reading a book all the way through.

Try to see it as an avant-garde thing, now you've read a book no one else has ever read! Now go and get pompous with your friends!

Being pompous is a good solution to most problems.

Bah, all those people are posers. I am one of the few people for which pompousness comes as a natural skill, and as such what I do is as different from the hipsters as day from night. True pompousness is subtle and artful. It takes much more than a mere inflated sense of self importance.
