I tried the "air quotes" a couple of times and got no response.  But in another class I have with Jerrod, Jerrod was making a point in class and used the quotes and got a chuckle out of me.
I finished The Magus yesterday, and like Anna I could not put it down.  I found myself putting off other things and focusing on the book.  I'm really curious on what everyone else in the class thinks about the book.  I reckon that I have several misreadings and have read into many things as well. 
Nicholas Urfe reminds of the main character in Camus's The Stranger.  Open to the idea of love, but not sure how to love.
I'll stop for now.  However, it's not very often that when I finish a book that I want to start reading it again or keep thinking about the book.  At least I know why in this case.
