No, but in university I was a cell bio/genetics major and an English lit minor. Sometimes it felt like lit stream was my hobby.

I never took English courses in uni but I love to read and discuss books. I’ve always wondered what it would be like!

Book clubs can be nice for discussion too, but a good prof can give a lot more history and context. Literary texts can contain a lot of references to ancient philosophical, mythological, or spiritual traditions. Understanding those reference points really enhances the experience

Exactly! I find that book clubs tend to just focus on plot but I wanna have deeper discussion points like references, symbolism etc

Yeah you might really enjoy a course then! Lol personally I don’t miss staying up late to finish papers, but I learned a lot about how to read that has stuck with me
