Is this worth reading? It's on my night table, but haven't opened it yet. Feel like returning it to the library and forgetting about it.

Is it a book?

It's bright and colourful and sitting on my serving tray it looks just as if it were made of icing.

Have I inadvertantly bought the cake of the book?

Just got it from library today along with some Céline, Joyce, Pessoa and Wallace. Pretty hyped.

No, that would be Atlas Shrugged

No, but Lucky Jim is.

I began reading it a while ago. At first I enjoyed it a lot, but eventually I stopped because the writing and humor weren't going anywhere, just the same format again and again. If you're really into it, you could probably enjoy it all.

it really isn't that good. browsing r9k is far more exciting in a fairly similar way

Basically The Simpsons owe a huge debt to this book.

No doubt the funniest laugh out loud books I've ever read.

Helps to be sorta familiar with the subject matter.
