I read the first book, then 80% of the second book. That's all I could take.
I haven't picked up a book since I set that second one down. Yup, that disgusted. :D

A bit off topic, but how many of you have an e-reader? I picked up a kindle paperwhite a few years ago when it came out. I had been waiting for one with a light to come out since the first kindle. It quickly became my favorite thing.

Just finished The Eye of the World, the first book of The Wheel of Time series. I'm intending to read through the entire series, but I'm not used to books lasting me four weeks to read! Planning to start The Great Hunt shortly. Thinking about reading something a little lighter in between each book though.

Is that a Jack Reacher book? I read the first three and am taking a break before picking up the series again.

Now you've only got 10 million pages spread over three books to go. :D
If you're continuing on with the series, a LOT of interesting things happen in A Storm of Swords.

I've used an e-reader for years.
I started with a 2nd generation Kindle. I now own and use a Paperwhite and love it.

I have a huge e-book library if anyone is looking for stuff to read. Mostly fiction.

I love it. Took away all the reasons I never read books.



Frank, I think the books I've read in the series can be summed up as a post-apocalyptic zombie read for teenage girls.
Maybe not that bad, but super close.
Great idea for a storyline, but it's written by a woman and just sounds like it is in my head when I'm reading it. A woman in her very early 20's. I just want to stuff a pair of socks in her mouth and send her home.
I STILL haven't finished that second book. But as God is my witness, I will.
I'm at 90+% now.
Then I don't know what I'll read.
Probably get away from sci-fi for a bit and read some history. Ken Burns, I'm thinking.
Or more Zombies if there's any out there worth reading. :D

That wouldn't be practical, Scott. While there is significant overlap (duplicates), I have ~40,000 titles. Mostly fiction.

If you give me a genre you like and/or authors, I can tell you what books, if any, I have.

Speaking of sci fi, just found a beat up copy of Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land. Read it years ago so I'm looking forward to see how it holds up to a second read.
