I'm at about 86,000 words into my first book. I've read that the average adult book is about 90,000 and no more than 100,000. I'm about to start the books final chapter, but the past few have averaged around 31,000 words, and I see this one not far off of that mark. I feel a lot of pressure to fit it all into at least the 100,000 mark but I also want the reading to feel natural. Any thoughts as to whether I should compress, or just say "f*ck it" and write it out.
