Since getting the book on its release date, I've tried to read about 30 pages a day, reading in snatches as I find the time throughout the day (between class periods, at lunch, during faculty meetings, etc.) and in the evening when wife and kids are asleep. I typically read about 200 pages a week with that pacing, so I'm hoping to finish my virginal reading of AtD by Christmas.
As of today, I'm on p. 298.
