Reading the OED

I stumbled upon a link to this book on LT. Such a wonderful goal and one to read.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Reading-OED-One-Year-Pages/dp/0399535055/ref=sr_1_1?ie=U...
Has anyone read this?

Just finished this - good read (and funny)

I had once upon a time thought I would read the OED from.cover to cover. All 20 volumes plus supplements.

A pipe dream.

However perhaps a smaller project would be more digestible, like the Oxford Pocket at 120,000 words.

Anyone tried this?
