Next book to read: Преступление и наказание by Fyodor Dostoevsky.

I had to read it in 7th or 8th grade, but I was too much a skiver to finish it. This is what helped me write the essay:

Nah, I'm not saying it's boring. I'm saying I was a skiver.

There were a few literate college students but I had to explain it to more than I really should have had to.

I read The Eyre Affair, and fully concur. The banana thing alone was, if nothing else, carrying on in the late Douglas Adams' marvelous tradition. Jolly good stuff.

I've read all of the Thursday Next Series, and the Nursery Crime Series (every book he's even written actually), and they're all amazing.  Who is Douglas Adams?

Ok, maybe it was unfair of me to cast Jasper into Mr. Adams' shadow -- I only did it to supply some relevance to other readers of these forums. Let me only say that, in my opinion, if you enjoy the one, you will not dislike the other.

After rather strong wave of nostalgia rekindled my fondness for the Stupid Sexy Flanders novels, I decided to reread them - I'm currently halfway through the second book. I'm also devouring Oberon Zell's Grimoire For the Apprentice Wizard. Scintillating read.
