I was amazed that someone could go to a train station for 11 straight days and sit and look at faces. Imagine the patience. I can barely sit still for a few minutes.

It's kind of a chicken and the egg thing. I only read a few pages because I quickly grow bored with it (whereas I read Book 1 in pretty much a single sitting) so without the momentum I can't easily read more than a few pages and forcing it will either reclaim the momentum or increase the boredom.
