About This Quote

The element of surprise is a great way to get through a difficult book. For example, it could be that you don't want to read the book in your own time and you go away with it. You could try setting up an appointment to read it at a time when it is not expected by the author or publisher. This will help you get through the book quicker and make sure that they will be less likely to notice you.
