Infinite Summer

52books:

If you’ve ever wanted to read Infinite Jest but found the 1,000+ page book to be a little daunting, Infinite Summer is a challenge to read the entire thing from June 21st through September 22nd. Full details will be on the site starting June 1st, although this is an event of which it might be best to fully prepare. (via Kottke.org)

Note: I’ve started reading this at a snail’s pace, separately from the other books I lug around in my purse. Believe me, it takes time. I probably won’t write a review of it until fall.

If you haven’t read this novel, this could be just the motivation.
