But how does Amazon know you've read at least 10%? Do they track ALL the pages turned in a book? Do they just track the last paged turned to in a book? Do they track the highest pages turned to in a book?
How they do this matters because if we want the author to get payed, then we need to know how to leave the book once it's exited. Do we just go to the end? Do we have to turn at least 10% of the pages? Do we not leave it sitting anyplace less then 10% in? For all we know, we could end up depriving an author of money without knowing.
