Day 60

Shutter Island - pages 28-111 (84 pages)

Goal - 8 books 140 pages
Total - 7 books 31 pages
Result - 1 book 109 pages to reach goal

OK, first off, they do have cars on the island in the book.

Second, the film does deviate from the book, so there is more to find out reading it.

Third, the dialogue still is buggy, but apparently he wrote it as an homage to certain kinds of films and books, so that may be the reason. Still, never reading him before and it not being obvious, it does come off as a deficiency at first.

Fourth, this book is pretty readable, so I'm reading it very quickly. It could be because since I already know most of what happens, I'm just naturally reading faster and not having to pay as much attention.

Fifth, happy leap day! :D
