CROSSROADS of TWILIGHT - Planning to Read? First Impressions? **NO SPOILERS**

[Jon]

Tomorrow, we start a new year, 2013, with Crossroads of Twilight, the tenth book in the Wheel of Time series.

I plan to read this book by listening to it. And, I give you fair warning now, that in less than ten days, I will take a few days break from the 10th book so I can read, uninterrupted, the final book, A Memory of Light, to be released on January 8th, 2013.

No spoilers please in this thread.

Thanks, Jon

Got most of the way through the prologue already. I know this is the one everybody hates but hopefully it won't be too bad.

I can't remember much of this one. I believe I only read it once (when it was released) so my memory is opaque. I'm also switching it up this month and listening to the audiobook instead. I hope that two narrators can keep me focused and interested.

Happy New Year!

[Kathi, There’s no such thing as too many books!]

I was caught up but now am behind again. Hope to start this before the end of the month...

I'm starting this one today!

Everybody seems to hate this book for a number of reasons, mainly how slow it moves. But one of the things I love about Jordan's books is the character development, and the detail. So even if it is slow, I'll still love it.

But sometimes, although there is a lot of detail, there is not much character development. Or maybe I should say it's very slow and gradual.

I don't want to brag but I'm catching up! I'm surprised to read that this allows down again as I didn't feel it had. Think I'm about a third through now.
