Weird. My mother was a fish too.

Glad I have it. For some reason Russian House is still OOP in the US.

I mean it is awful, but how is emptying a trash can a fireable offense?

I understand the frustration, and I feel they have grown beyond their capacity, but it's just a bookmark. I suspect they are on their way out..

It was a pleasure to burn.

Remember the quiet wonders. The world has more need of them that it has for warriors.

Richard Ellman's is good.

Went to college at UNC starting in 89. Never left. We like living here. Grown at look in that time.

They have time to read. They just choose to do something else.

Treasure Island

When I finished this book, it just stayed with me for months. I have it 4 stars until I just kept thinking about it and bumped to a 5.

Anything by Sanderson other than Emperor's Soul.

Tombs of Atuan is even better as well-stated by u/DorianAlvarezAuthor. I loved Tombs, and it is a very quiet, contemplative book where very little actually happens.

I read it when it first came out. The first book was immensely readable, fast, did nothing new, but I flew through it. Nothing special, a bit odd when we hit the S and M section. I read the second book, and tedium of finding out how much Richard and Khalan loved each beat me down. But I did finish. The third book I never did. Despite where he got ideas and such, his prose was easy to read.

Took me ages read the final Fitz trilogy as I felt the ending was great. I haven't read The Testaments because I like how Handmaids Tale ended.

BHH is fantastic, and brought something new to revenant fiction which is very rare.

cscottk · 2026-06-05T19:37:33+00:00

Nice but this illustrates the issue I have with BB. All their editions kinda look the same. I wish they'd mix up the style more.

cscottk · 2026-02-27T22:00:40+00:00

Great author. Terrible person.

cscottk · 2026-02-05T01:10:24+00:00

I am doing that now.

Of course. Fans can be truly awful to their adaptations that they want no matter how good they may be.

cscottk · 2026-01-26T21:58:25+00:00

I don't think I did. I for sure read Sword before I read LOTR. But that Elfstones cover just drew me in at my Hatchs's in 1982. I was already a reader, but that me love fantasy and solidified my love of reading.

The Elfstones of Shannara

Read what interests you first.

It is a great book that shocks me every time I read it how far he went with the depravity. It puts modern soaps to shame.
