Aw, come on! That's not what I meant by it! I'm just saying that with a book this length, suddenly it becomes a Commitment. I mean, three months man, that's the time frame we're dealing with. That's a quarter of a year. I honestly think that more people would participate if it was a book club, not a massive book club. I'm not saying that I think people would participate more if we were to choose lighter fare either; a whole lot of those books suggested were heavy, dense kinds of books because . . . I guess those are the kind of people interested in participating. The thing is we need to keep the pace up so that people stay involved. Too long in between and people forget.
I read your post on the other stuff you're supposed to be reading and it seems like you've got a heavy load. One of my worst semesters in school was when I decided to take a literary foundations course (classics) and a Brit. Lit course. One book a week for each class. If I had the opportunity to do things over, I would definitely not do that again.
I would love to be able to take courses like that, but most of my reading is on top of class because my college doesn't handle double majors very well. No room for interesting courses. I've been reading part two this afternoon and unfortunately it's much, much weirder than part one. Fuck.
