I am so jealous. My professor gave me a really reading-intensive course that was nothing short of a gauntlet of readings. I remember hearing from another person that they had one where they just did some short stories and ended with "Last of the Mohicans."

I don't recommend reading "Moby Dick" unless you have time.
