What have I got myself into now...

The reading lists for my Masters arrived in my inbox yesterday, and oh boy, are they epic!! I haven't even heard of half of these books, and my lit geek status might be revoked!! I'm not looking forward to hunting these books down, I'm guessing the more obscure ones are going to be a pain even in the age of Amazon. So here I go, off to BookMooch to add them to my wishlist in the vain hope someone out there has a copy they want to send. Otherwise this is probably going to be expensive.
Worse, there's books on some of these lists that I read for my BA, and I got rid of my copies, mostly because they weren't books I could see myself reading again, and now I need them! Oh dear.
I'm excited to have my timetable and these lists, even though they're already causing me problems, it means something is finally happening, something that I've been stressing about for ages.
I have a start date, a schedule, a booklist, now all I need is to start classes and get reading!

  1. Well, I hope you find your books. I would love to go back to school and learn something new. I learn new things everyday but I do it on my own.
