On the Calculation of Volume (Book IV)

Notes

But! this is the fourth slim volume exploring a Groundhog Day situation, and introduces more new people who are also stuck in the same day. I do like the slow expansion of this conceit here!

This is a book that I think I would enjoy more if I could just read the whole omnibus version all together at once. I only got a few bits into this before the sense of deja vu - which yes, I get, is thematically appropriate- took over and I thought: we are never getting out of this loop, are we?
