 I have a similar reaction. I'm taking an English class, mostly, well, because I love to read books, especially novels. I came into the class with the (not unreasonable?) expectation that we would be reading actual novels. I really loved studying blogs, but now that I have spent six weeks largely reading from a computer screen, I think I am ready to take a look back at print. I want to delve into challenging, dense works; I would be more than happy to read classics or non-classics depending on the preferences of the class. I will admit that I am not very interested in graphic novels or science fiction, as I feel these appeal to a limited audience.
