I just started CoT. I think I may make it through this time.

All right! Let me tell you, KoD is definitely worth it! And Perrin does get a good character-development scene in CoT. Good luck with all the politics...yet another reason to hate Elayne...

Not really wierd...all those personality tests are different, anyway. I think on the Wotmania test, I was identified as Logain. Go figure...

Well, good luck. That one makes you somewhat angry at parts...

If I could quit getting sidetracked, I would see I think when I finally finish it I'm going to take a little break.

No, not Elayne! Ah, well...

By the way...when A Memory of Light is finished, who's wearing yellow contacts when they go to buy it?

Why, of course!

Wow, it's so fun to know people who read WoT. The other day, one of them was mentioning drilling a bore in something, and I just started laughing out loud. He also reads WoT, so he got my reference immediately-yeah, he's getting slightly annoyed now.

I have decided to take a break from WoT for a little while. I think I've ODed on it for now.

When I start back up, I'll pick up where I left off in PoD

*gasp*

Hmm...I think I'll start a betting pool on how long it takes for your WoT withdrawal to begin...

1 week, anyone? Five days? 12 HOURS???

I finally finished CoT, and I still don't like it.

That said, I just started Knife of Dreams and enjoyed the first scene with Galad a lot. I was wondering if that angle would ever be addressed. Good to see.

Hey, congrats on making it through CoT! We should seriously make a T-shirt: "I survived CoT". KoD is really much better. I also loved Embers Falling on Dry Grass...that was a really cool scene. You also get one of the best and biggest fantasy battles I've seen in a while.

Yep, I saw that on Wotmania...it's really cool! I love RJ's whole take on this thing.
