    You can hear about what I say you can hear about.

    I know. Was just answering honestly. I read about 2 pages between filling out applications, doing unnecessary digital presentations that probably won't increase the chances I'm hired, and revamping the resume.

    Probably not worth getting into until we read it. I think it is a sort natural inclination to reject anything that someone anoints as the GOAT and declares is the best thing ever and you're like... well, we will see.

    The intro actually alludes to this being the most heavily debated book in several decades.

    Do all copies of IJ have the Dave Eggers intro? That's the one in mine.

    I graduate Sunday, so I don't plan to start until after this coming weekend. I'll probably go ahead and buy the book tomorrow.

    I am cool with structure and milestone checkpoints, but know I have a somewhat plodding reading style. Might be good to start getting a feel for the book.

    I'm okay with coming up with a structure, though I'm not really doing anything with it til after graduation.

    Milestone checkpoints seems like a good idea.
