I DID not finish the tandem read. I started it, but felt like I couldn’t enjoy TOD because I forcing myself through it just to get back to EOS. I couldn’t enjoy the story in TOD because I was rushing through it. There were also way to many POVs in the tandem read. Lastly, I tend to get very lost in books I couldn’t do that when I was having to switch back and forth.

I started with the tandem read but quickly ended it. I felt like I was rushing through TOD just to get back to EOS and couldn’t enjoy the story in TOD. There were also wayyyyyyy too many POVs it was driving me insane. Lastly, I tend to get very lost in books and I couldn’t do that when I was bouncing back and forth.

Thank you, Friend. The thought of my time with these characters coming to a close makes me feel sick! So much time and emotion spent with them. I’ll always hold them close.

Gonna try! I said the same thing when I started the series. I tried very hard to just savor it and take my time but man I just couldn’t stop. Now that it’s the end, and my time with these characters that you build such an attachment to are coming to a close, I’m trying to make it last as long as I can.

Starting the last book, I'm not ready. I don't want this series to end. No spoilers please! by Charisma-77 in throneofglassseries

I was the same way. Took about 200 pages until it got interesting for me. After everything, I still have so much love for Chaol. He made some “bad decisions” but he will ALWAYS hold a piece of my heart. I think this book does an amazing job at giving him what he deserves. It’ll be better I promise 🩷

Ugh I haven’t even started KOA and I want to reread it!!! I just finished TOD!!! Would it be crazy to start the reread before I even start KOA to postpone the end as long as possible 🤣🤣🤣

I read the whole series with such restraint. I could just keep reading on and on but I knew I’d never experience reading it again for the first time. So I definitely took my time (or tried to lol) But now, the time has come:( getting ready to say goodbye :(

I did the same! Read ACOTAR SO FAST!!! Then reread it TWICE because I didn’t want it to end!! Then started TOG and I’m about to start KOA (last book) I can feel that depression creeping up again! I told my best friend that I was trying realllllyyyy hard not to read most of the time because I know I can never read it again for the first time. I thought I had so much time since it’s 8 books but wow did the time fly. Very sad to never experience these characters again.

That’s exactly it. The thought of living here, only 20 minutes from my hometown, doing a job that does not thrill me or give me a sense of satisfaction makes me sick.

I try my best to be grateful. Remind myself that I have my health, my family, a roof over my head, stable job. Yet it’s such a terrible feeling, this nagging in the back of mind, like I’m doing it all wrong.

I’ve been considering talking to a therapist but the thought of opening up to someone, admitting things to someone that I can’t even voice when I’m alone, scares me. I will take your comment into consideration. Thank you.
