I'm seeing the end of the year heading for me very fast, and the list of books I was going to read This Year is nowhere near as small as I want it. So! for this week (umm, say, between now and sometime Sunday) the challenge is to select one book, and focus on finishing it.

What book are you going to try and get to the other end of this week?

Oh! That is usually difficult because I usually read several books at once and finish them within a fairly short timespan... but this one is easy, because I've been stalled on finishing Deanna Raybourn's The Impossible Impostor since I a) learned the ending and b) realised it was going to be driven by the "we can't possibly talk to each other honestly" trope of stupidness.

So I will choose that. Skimming it is fine if that is the only way I can get it read. I just want to get done with it.

Yes, skimming has allowed to get much reading done with books I just wanted to finish.

Best wishes for finishing this book, whether you have to skim it or not. :-)
