I read this last year. I have a hardcover edition I can refer to if needed, but I'm hoping to participate in the discussions without re-reading it at this time. Too much travelling this month to spare time to read (except for audiobooks).
I have read, and plan on re-reading possibly this weekend. I'm so excited about this discussion!
I read this book in December, and will hopefully remember enough about it to discuss.
Ordered my copy from Amazon last week, expecting it any day now.
I am going to try to. I put a hold on it with the library
Am reading it and enjoying it, but have to return it to library this week so wont be able to finish it.

LOL - ya that bothered me too
Just joined this group and about to start the book! I was just deciding what book to read next and Name of the Wind has been sitting in my to-read pile...so seeing the upcoming discussion made the decision for me! Looking forward to it...
Finally! My copy got here a bit later than I was expecting, but at last it's here. I've read the first few chapters and am intrigued.
Have now found a copy in the local book store (Australia) so shall buy that to finish the book.
Finished it in January. I didn't quite get the whole "intro to the next book" vibe, but the author definitely left things very open ended.
Still in the beginning stages (page 175).
I read it a while ago. I was going to reread it, and opted not to given my current time constraints.

At least you're reading it now when the next book is due out *soon*...I read it soon after it first came out *chuckle*!
I started reading this book months ago and found it boring and put it aside. After I joined GR and saw it here, and saw how everybody seems to like so much, I have picked it up again. I am up to page 325 and I am still waiting for some action, for something to happen...it is very slow for me.
