Just realised I never saw this message... oops. Oh well its ..."


Haha, I only wrote that comment and then never went on to do anything... Creating a thread or a schedule, so you were much more active.

Zaara | 4273 comments See, what I want to post here is a psychhorror GIF of Joe Abercrombie slowly widening his grin until it reaches Grinch proportions revealing sabre toothed fangs dripping blood ALONG with background music of knives being ground on flinty wheels and shivs being drawn from manky boots but...
even in this content glutted world nobody has made such a gif yet....so We The People technically ungifted are constrained in our tasteful endeavours.

Zaara | 4273 comments Why do people keep knives in boots anyway...this always struck me as hazardous...
The Nonsense is back, milady.

EDIT - So where ARE you?
Ppl were talking about Mark Lawrence on the invites thread and I got all frenetic in the word output remembering the days you made us a schedule for Prince of Thorns and we all had such fun posting about every damn detail....luckily they were spared the horror of all that when I realise they were merely linking a list compiled by ML.

That was such a fun buddy read... I bought Road Brothers recently but have yet to read it... worried that I won't remember enough about the trilogy to enjoy it and if its worth saving it in case I ever reread the trilogy.

Zaara | 4273 comments We should do a trilogy reread then as Tenfingers was suggesting....and THEN do Road Brothers.
:D I love this trilogy

Hahaha, I would love to see that GIF!!! 😂 At least we readers have enough imagination to get the image in our head, even when no one has created it.

Hmmm... I don't think I'm up for that right now. As much as I enjoyed reading the book with you guys, I wasn't overly impressed by book 2 and 3, I think.
I can't even remember what it was exactly, but I've enjoyed Abercrombie's books so mucb more!

And that, milady, is the point where again, I have to recommend A Little Hatred to you, or have you read it by now?


Siobhan and me want to read Way of the Argosi end of October /November, maybe you want to join us? I'm so excited for Ferius Parfax' story!!

Well, you see me now. And I'm mighty glad to be seeing you too, matey.

Oh that I meant for me, Hailee and Tenfingers. We don't want no Jorg detractors pooping on our party, thank you very much.
》:D

Re A Little Hatred, yeah I know. But Lannister and I had something of an unspoken pact on Abercrombie...and I'm bracing myself for a bit of a scolding on that front ;)

Let's see, i will love to read something with you both agn. In fact, I'd written to siobhan already asking about Powder Mage. She finished the series, we haven't...do you get my drift.......

EDIT...whenever you are in the mood, of course. But i really wanna start closing out all the things I started.


message 112: by Anni (new)

Anni | 5066 comments No poopping for me than 😂

I think I see where you're trying to lead me... Into the dark, to an evil place, where I have to abandon all my other readibg plans... Not sure I I want to follow you. Dark and evil places are tempting, tho :D

But honestly, I really want to read that series but I really don't know if I will be able. I trying to start the Wheel of time series as well and at this point I don't think I'll be able to squeeze something else in this year. Maybe my readibg will go up when it becomes more cold outside, winter always was my reading prime time :) But right now I don't want to make any promises I can't keep...


message 113: by Zaara (new)

Zaara | 4273 comments 🤣 haha, the Dark Mother beckons....
Always make lots of promises you can't keep. The more outrageous the better...
Naaaaw, I solemnly swear...I'll keep Powder Mage for you whenever you feel like completing it. Since "honestly you really really wanna complete that series"
*very serious face* I MEAN IT.


message 114: by Anni (new)

Anni | 5066 comments Ok, ok! How can I say no to that?

I will do my best to make room for it, especially since we haven't done a BR for faaar too long!


message 115: by Zaara (new)

Zaara | 4273 comments Oh my god, I AM unconsciously terrifying!!!
Sorry, sweetheart. Oh dear…what I tried to say (very badly) is I am very happy to wait for whenever you are free and in the mood to read Powder Mage even if that is next year bcuz I know you are already among several mid-series reads. Where are you in Powder Mage, end of Book 1, right?
Also did you finish the Riyria prequels or even :D Percepliquis? I haven’t even started Age of… I see Nolyn is out…o god, so much catching up.
I watched this Youtube video where this kid freaks out that she is in the middle of 48 series…I’m sure I’m not that bad…
But then I keep putting off even making a list ;)

I'd be up for that. Rereading seems to be my thing recently so I may as well embrace it
