Twenty pages a day.
That's the whole idea.
A quiet, paper-friendly system that helps you choose the right books, fit reading into ordinary days and remember what you read — twenty pages at a time.

You still love books. You just stopped finishing them.
There's a stack on the nightstand with bookmarks stuck around page forty. You buy a new one because it sounded wonderful, and the old ones wait.
You open the phone "for a minute" and the evening is gone. When you do read, you finish a chapter and can't quite say what it was about.
You don't need a speed-reading trick. You need a small, steady amount, a better way to pick what comes next, and a place to keep what you want to remember.

FAQ
Why twenty pages?
It's small enough to fit most days (often 20–30 minutes) and large enough that books actually get finished. You can adjust the number in the tracker.
Does it work with e-books and audiobooks?
Yes. The tracker includes a column for minutes or percentage, so any format fits.
Do I need to print it?
No. The templates work on a tablet or computer, and they also print cleanly on letter or A4 paper.
Is this therapy or medical advice?
No. Twenty Pages is an educational reading-habit system. It is not therapy and not medical or professional advice.
Does it include books?
No books are included. The system helps you choose and read the books you already own or want to read.
How do I get it?
After your one-time US$21 payment, you get a download link for the PDF and templates.
