I am very interested in using the 15 minutes a day with the Harvard Classics as a way of adding enjoyment to my reading. The thematic variety it will procure can hardly be reproduced by just reading through the volumes at random or systematically from volume to volume.
I just tested the first day of January on my 505: page 883 (Keats, The Eve of St. Agnes) will be pages 848/1125/1772 in S/M/L respectively on the reader. It did take me some pageing back and forth to find the first instance, then it's easy of course to note the other numbers.
I intend to start my 15-minutes-a-day this weekend and will note the numbers as I go along. I'll take an extra 15 minutes (?) weekly to look up the planned readings. Has someone may be already done this?
Heading over to Archive.org and 'flip book' to see how easy/hard it is to figure out the 2nd reference to Franklin's autobiography.
I gather the notes in volume L are out of the question altogether alas.
