Reading Lists

As a student I realise that there is a lot of reading to be done, but my eyes can only take so much! It's all read this and that, some of which I've started and some of which is just so mind numbingly boring that I might just use those text books to start a bonfire. Furthermore, I find that at this particular moment my drive is lacking... it must have something to do with all of the rain, the full on week I had last week and a few too many headaches. Still, why do there have to be so many stupid books this term? Last term I was given a huge reading list, bought all the books and read a couple of chapters from about, lets see... two of them! I mean really, were students who are already being hit up for £9,000, the least our lectures could do is tell us which books we have to read and which books we can read if we want too or have a deep passion for that area of study. Thats not to say some lectures don't be helpful, but I did waste £50 or so, on three books for one course that I AM NEVER GOING TO READ!!!
