The Summer is not Infinite

A lot of people are reading Infinite Jest this summer.  Some people have even started group blogs to blog about their reading of Infinite Jest.

I find myself both uninterested in reading Infinite Jest this summer and jealous beyond belief of the people who know enough other people willing to read the same novel and blog together about it as a group.

(btw, other people are reading Villette this summer and blogging/discussing it. )
