How To Read Literature Like A Professor So Far

I am well into Thomas C. Foster's book about reading literature smarter and like a professor and thus far I have enjoyed it.  When I first picked up the book and read the title I thought it would be the worst thing I had ever read.  I assumed it to be a long boring examination of reading techniques and other fancy, old-fashioned garbage written by some old geezer.  I was wrong however as the book has been enjoyable as Foster gives readers enough humor to keep them going through a subject that could be made excruciatingly boring very quickly.  In addition to his humor, Foster's ideas and thoughts about reading literature have been interesting to me.  I have found myself relating to his writing on many levels whether it be through his mention of a work I have read or an idea about said work that I too thought of or discussed in a previous English class.  I still have a bit to go in his "lively and entertaining guide" and I hope it continues to be as enjoyable as it has been.
