Seven days for any book of the Bible?!?!

I am a big believer that ANY book of the Bible can be read in just seven days. Yes, any book. Even Psalms. In fact, I've spent the past few months reading through the book of Psalms weekly paired with compline from the book of common prayer.

You can use math and common sense to break down into chunks or segments. You don't have to have a rigid plan. But I have tossed about some possibilities. I decided to join 1 Chronicles and 2 Chronicles because so many chapters are naturally skimmable. For better or worse.
