You have been put in a giant library. You can get out once you've read every book and put a report of it in the catalog.

Seem normal? The twist: The library keeps growing bigger and bigger with each passing day eventually becoming near impossible to do plus the books change locations daily.

I probably wouldn't be able to even finish a single book until maybe like ~3 months into the digital detox. Maybe longer

Yep, it arrives daily at 9:00 AM, noon, 6:00 PM and 11:00 PM. Each meal includes a large bottle of your favorite drink as well.

an interesting challenge... would you become the best reader in the world? or would you fry your brain and never want to see another book again. that could be an extremely enlightening experience if it went well.

I dont think anyone could. Even a small library would be a huge time commitment. No way your getting through a decent chunk by the end of the first day.

Youd be stuck there forever.

There is one way, I think. They said the library grows bigger each day, but not how much bigger. If it only got bigger by like one book, then it could be possible, I would think...

In the original screenplay for Groundhog Day, to keep track of his days, he'd read in single page from 1 book per day; he eventually got through the entire library.

Sure you could do that. Just like you could eat your own arm or crap wherever there. However, just because you could do that, doesn't mean you should.

Pretty sure it'd be impossible regardless in a normal library. However, assuming that you still have food, drink, a bathroom, etc, that could be a bookworm's heaven. In fact, that person might have all the time in the world, time enough at last. >_>

Oh, plus an expanding library would make it less torturous in that you know you couldn't do it. It's crueler when they have some hope of doing it, or at least think they have hope.

Thats true. Also depends on how big the books are.

But even just the addition of a few decent sized books could make this impossible.

As soon as I realized this, I'd know I was never getting out and that I was basically just stuck here forever. At which point I'd just shrug and stop playing their game.

Since I'm getting fed and I actually enjoy reading, I'd probably just stay there and read the books without bothering with the writing reports BS.

Since you didn't say I was immortal, I assume I'd eventually die of old age, so it would be over eventually. But even if it wasn't, I'm in an infinite library that is constantly adding new books so it's not as if I'd ever run out of books to read.

In a fantasy novel, I'd eventually turn into some sort of insane keeper of knowledge called The Archivist or something, and eventually the hero would have to find a way to contact me to ask me about some obscure piece of information only I could possibly know the answer to.

Maybe I could get out, depends on the speed of how big it gets, I can read faster than most people and all I did in Highschool free time was read books.

Although if I had to make handwritten reports I'd be screwed.
