Could I be putting too much stock into the exercises? That's where I'm getting
frustrated. For example, I'm treating them as "test" exercises and when I don't get
them correct, I deem the chapter a failure, which is silly since there are 2 or 3
questions per chapter. Maybe I should treat them as "examples" instead.
