    Let's do this. I'm going to Atlas some Clouds.

    (Starting a new book is *hard*. I could continue my second playthrough of *Breath of the Wild* instead.)

      The first section, "The Pacific Journal of Adam Ewing," ends mid sentence. I flipped through the book, and it resumes near the end of the book. The different sections are nested. Presumably I'm going to have different thoughts on the experiences of Ewing, Mr Goose, and Autua by the end of the book.

        Right. I have two weeks. I need a pace of roughly 33 pages per day to finish the book. This is doable--just gotta resist the urge to get sucked into a different story.

          ... In other news, I've defeated two guardian beasts and claimed the master sword. White bokoblins have started appearing. I still haven't made it out to Death Mountain or the desert!

            Read the next chunk. At one point the protagonist talks about reading a copy of the previous section, that ends suddenly around page forty--just like in the book. Another character talks about a melody he heard in a dream about the future. This is the book telling us that the different sections will comment on each other, beyond whatever thoughts are sparked by juxtaposition. Okay, I'm interested to see where this will go.

              The protagonist of the next section--Luisa Rei, reporter--finds the letters sent by the protagonist of the previous section--Robert Frobisher, wastrel. She gets them from an elderly Rufus Sixsmith, the guy Frobisher wrote 'em too. Interesting ...

              I think I'm still on pace, which is a surprise. Weekdays are much worse for reading than weekends.

              EDIT: I consistently wrote "session" instead of "section". Ha, silly brain. 😅

                I made it past the halfway point last night. I had some trouble getting into Zachry's section, but I loved the dynamic between him and Meronym. It's a funny part of the book, tho. It spells out the themes and ideas of the entire story. Now it's time for a series of (hopefully satisfying) conclusions. 😀
