Books books... I now live in books

This is the book that I am reading aside from my normal coursework. I have this guy as a tutor next term and I hear he is like super scholar and I should try and be prepared. I meet with him independantly to study Judaism. I am interested in like late second temple, basically the time and culture of Jesus. So this will work really well with my Christianity dissertation I will be doing this summer on the historical figure of Jesus. SO I am page 13, and it is only 600 pages. I will keep you posted (or the one person who reads my blog) as to how far I get. Because I have a hard time finishing books, and I would feel really good if I could get through this one...so, as I am not being made to read this, I need some motivational factor. Because it is totally interesting I just have this mind block I really need to get over.
