That's a good point. I wouldn't mind seeing that more. Let me know when you get to the end, I'm curious of your opinion on something.

I finally finished reading it! I got stuck on one of the new character's chapters, and it took a month or three to pick it up again and finish it. I was so close to the end all this time!!

Now I don't know what to do... It'll probably be a 5 year wait until the next one, won't it?

I'm just about to finish A Song of Fire and Ice: A Storm of Swords. I agree with others who said that everyone dies! It's pretty awesome and unexpected.

Wool by Hugh Howie, part one is free on the Kindle if you want to check it out. I'm up to part 4 and it's riveting, don't want to put it down.

Cool

I was going through the books so fast, I made myself take a break from them but am going to start back up today. Very little self control when it comes to reading and chocolate. Embarrassment laugh out loud

If you do like it, the Wool Omnibus is a buck cheaper than buying the other four books separately. Then there's the Shift, three part series that continues the storyline. There's a final series called Dust coming out to wrap up the whole saga, no word yet on when it will come out.

decided to go back and read some Heinlein with Double Star [amazon.com]. within the first few chapters, i was reminded why i like reading him so much. not his best or deepest work, but an entertaining read.

Nice. I love to find a new series to read. My hubby's just started working evenings, so I see a lot more reading time in my future bounce

I bought the Shift Omnibus yesterday, since I'm almost finished with Wool. So of course today there's a hot deal for either omnibus for $1.99 each. Doh Annoyed

I'm about a third of the way through Shift, it's still interesting but it's a bit depressing too. I wish it followed the characters in Wool further along from where Wool left off but oh well, I'm still reading it. Smilie

I really enjoyed the Wool book. I haven't bought the Shift one. I hated to see Wool end, I wanna know what happened to them!!
