| As a PhD student, I get my library books for 2 months, and can renew them twice before returning them (unless they get recalled). Althought the uni library is more for textbooks than literature.
I look forward to finishing studenthood, when I'll have time to read fiction again. |

| It is, and that's why I study it!
In my view you shouldn't do a PhD unless it's a subject that genuinely interests you. It's not a job ticket sort of degree. |

| Mine are not, but that's potentially due to the fact that I don't have any right now. |
