Yeah Reva I should have started with my staff in the beginning since I read about 80% series already. (probably more than that to be honest). I just HATE skipping around in a series so I knew it would be more difficult for me to fit in all the appropriate slots each time. I've just invested to much into my sword I'd hate to start over.

I guess instead of using 14+ books for a higher level sword I can use them to get potions to balance it out.
35559 I think my favorite so far is After You (Me Before You, #2) by Jojo Moyes which I'm still reading, but it's so captivating!

35559 I know this may be too much of a help, but I'd LOVE something else that increases our weapon attack by +1 (or more ;)). I am getting to the point where I am running out of huge 1000+ page books to up my sword.

I know we have a lot of these types of things, but just wanted to throw it out there. Maybe in conjunction with something for our horsie.
