After one week, the cheese' resolve finally broke and today he purchased Thud!. Of course, today also marked the release of Anansi Boys so time will tell how long before the cheese buys that. Normally, none of this would matter, except that the cheese has to read Sister Carrie by next Monday, and still has three critical essays to read before tonight, not to mention the fact that he must finish Dracula by next week (though, since he has already read this once, he will likely skim it as, if memory serves, it's a slow ass book).
Damn grad. school is certainly getting in the way of the cheese' normal reading habits!

Mmm Dracula, yes that was a very slow book but good. How ever I have never heard of this Sister Carrie.
Turn of the century (19th to 20th that is) Theodore Dreisler about an 18 year old country girl moving to Chicago. First 25 pages are passible...
Does she get attacked by vampires in chicago and then go on a vampire killing spree? That would make a good book.
No but sometime around the year 2052 Chicago becomes a quarantine zone/the exclusive haunt of the undead...in the shadowrun universe anyway
Theodore Dreisler should have written a story about that. Then it wouldn't be nearly so long and boring.
