Maybe you want to take a look at TODO dependencies (info "(org)
TODO dependencies") set `org-enforce-todo-dependencies' to t, and
do something like
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
* TODO Read book
:PROPERTIES:
:ORDERED: t
:END:
** TODO Pages 1-150
** TODO Pages 151-300
#+END_EXAMPLE
Then when closing one of the sub headlines, schedule the next one.
Best,
