It’s a mental game. It’s suspension of disbelief. You do have pages behind you - 144 of them. Obviously; Because this is page 145. So you are in the middle. You’re 145 pages in. It says so right there.
Yeah except the person from the scenario who asks you how far you are, and you say “about halfway through” will look at you on what is clearly page one and be like “yeah ok.”
Then how would it appear as though they’re in the middle of the book? Wasn’t that the entire point? You would need blank pages to do that.
They said they like having pages behind them and being in the middle of the book… To me that implies blank pages.

Whatever, the whole thing is stupid anyway.
