Right now I'm in between two courses and winding down with some fiction. Anybody here who has read Mr Sammler's Planet? I'm only 30 pages in but I'm enjoying it so far.

going to start Rebatet's Les deux étendards. It has a very good reputation as a novel, but Rebatet collaborated with Vichy and the nazis, as quite a number of others, but his novel seems to be the most interesting one.

I read Snow Crash for the first time. A really exciting book. There's a lot of points where I feel kind of swept up in everything and a lot of things felt confusing, but nevertheless it all felt like part of the plan. The Metaverse is an awesome setting, and Stephenson has a great sense of humor paired along with a pretty casual writing style that I liked a lot.

Civ Pro is my favorite class so far, as the sometimes overly elaborate, abstract Supreme Court opinions match up better with my background in literature and critical theory than the other topic areas in which lower courts dominate the case law. So far, I've found the reading pretty interesting and enjoyable, though I don't sense similar attitudes among my peers lol
