Honestly, as an English Lit major, there is a shocking amount of things I haven't read.

Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I have some Awakening ok-ness. But I'd rather read The Yellow Wallpaper.
Oh, "The Yellow Wallpaper" is a thousand times better than The Awakening. Gilman makes her story creepy and psychologically compelling. Chopin makes her story BORING AS ALL FUCK.

I like both The Awakening and Madame Bovary.

The "Infinite Jest" thing is rather a modern version of the same. If it doesn't make some sense in the next fifty pages...I may abandon it, especially since the guy that recommended it is all interested in some other chick, anyway.ETA: Dana is me. I wrote a paper on "The Yellow Wallpaper" though.

If I only had a brain...
"The Yellow Wallpaper" is like "To Room Nineteen" -- well-written and so close to the bone I never want to read it again.
