True confessions
Oh, the remorse of a Yahoo groups junkie. I've thought better of my signing up last night for a book club group. It's for Jane Smiley's Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Novel; the group's aim is to read and discuss one book per month from Smiley's reading list of 100. It would take nine years, but I cannot take it at that clip right away. I have so many OTHER books I want and need to read right now besides the ancient ones on the beginning of her list. I fear I must go unsubscribe myself. At least I don't need a lawyer to get out of this one...

My question exactly. I haven't read the earliest novels, but I have read lots of the 20th century ones. Unfortunately, those don't come up on the reading list for another FIVE YEARS.
(And many of the 19th century ones as well.)
