or perhaps "hot-lanta," as they say.

You know when you are in a class; the professor is doing his thing: lecturing, making funny asides to the students, lamenting their lack of knowledge about Humphrey Bogart movies. Idly, you look down at your text of the Epic Work you are reading and there, among the fifteen thousand footnotes, you see your professor's name

That happened to me a couple times, but mostly my professors wrote the actual fucking book instead of being a footnote, haha. It's bizarre.

[bakbakbecky]

ah, i was going to respond with something like that, but you beat me to it.

but yes, i've had several books now that were written by my professors. and i still can't get over that.

[thegalallama]

Thank goodness that as an English major my professors generally don't write the books. Small favors

[eternal_note]

gala i can't understand why you would even begin to read that book based on its blurb--oh wait, you're obsessed with vampires.

[thegalallama]

haha, for the record, my friends bought and read the book based on its blurb, they then swiftly thrust it into my face.

[eternal_note]

oh same here same here. except all my professors fly fighter planes.

!!! i bought this book a couple months ago and read it in one night...huzzah for the "young adult" genre!!!

[thegalallama]

Oh my goodness. Everyone in my sorority is like, obsessed. It is amazing. The sequel is legit too!

[dani_boi]

seriously. i bought that the day after. i cant wait til the 3rd finally comes out

[thegalallama]

We will have a buying party in August when it comes out. Haha, it is our new book obsession now that Harry Potter is abandoning us.
