This year was very important to Andy Ferguson, with a touch of serendipity, that is to say, he published his first book, writing one page every day. From the information that was given, how many pages exactly does his book have?

Some people are average, some are just mean.

At most 28 pages, but I don't know how long the publishing process took.
You can hardly call 28 pages a book anyway, though.

Mayhap I am overlooking something here, that is to say, I have no idea what you're talking about. But, if we are even, I guess we are square. I am starting to doubt my exceptionally keen intellect when it comes to this riddle. If I had no doubts I'd be Neo in the matrix. Yikes!

Now I get it! But not all months have the same number of days.

Nope, your answer is not good enough. Not even on the right track. When did this year start?
