I may be missing the sarcasm; does it really take "sooooo long" to continue? Going from sleep to reading is almost instantaneous on my Aura.

I figured (with no facts or research to support my figuring) that the reading statistics were a weighted average sort of thing, with the most recent reading session getting most of the weight, or with particularly long pauses or unnaturally short page turns being ignored.

I do like the estimates of how long the current chapter will take me, and the general knowledge that I have read 7 books in 69 hours. I find the stats to be sufficiently accurate for my use.
