Lois McMaster Bujold:
There are certain authors that I will immediately order/preorder their new book, but will then save said book to read as a reward or to consume in pure happiness because I know the writing, plot, world-building, etc are top notch and will not disappoint. You, T. Kingfisher, Alma T.C. Boykin, James Benn, (Terry Pratchett, alas) are some of my very favorites. Are there authors or series about which you feel similarly?
Lois McMaster Bujold
Well, I'm hanging on to the last Pratchett, though not because I think it will make me happy, but because I suspect it will make me sad.
At the moment, I'm mostly going on to the next whatever because it has sustained my curiosity, at least for a time. But otherwise it's been browsing the infinite entertainment smorgasbord and mostly not finding the next gripping thing. Temporarily amusing, yes, I have found that.
The things I've most gotten into lately have all been finished works. The Asian live-action fantasy TV shows The Untamed and Hotel Del Luna (both on Netflix) have been the biggest recent hits. Also recently found (on Rakuten Viki) worth mention is the 3-D animation The Island of Siliang, unfinished at present. Astounding production quality. I'd be ecstatic to have any work of mine done so well in that medium.
