Just how does somebody read and review a 700+ page book in under a day?

Answer: They don't.

No spoilers in the story, but they'll probably turn up in the comments almost immediately.

I don't know - I'm perfectly capable of reading an 800 page book in a day and then talking intelligibly about it. Now, could I write a professional-level review as well in that time? Maybe not, but I also don't do it everyday. And I'm pretty sure that a lot of those instant reviews just hit the high points.

I can and have and remember what the book was about and details, not always a good thing since the rest of life tend to end up neglected. Always was a super fast reader.

And no spoilers from me either.

I read the book in a matter of hours, but I did laundry at the laundromat for part of that.

My sweetie read the book in 2 hours, 15 minutes.
