Hey, Karen! You are not really reading that, are you? You haven't turned the page in the last 10 minutes.
No Jim, I suppose I haven't. I need to get through it, but I keep drifting away.
So it doesn't really hold your interest?
No, not really. To be honest, I have to read it for a seminar. I'm at the university. I don't like the course at all. You see, I wanted to do philosophy rather than English. But my parents didn't let me.
