It's your kind of thing if you like traditional swords-and-horses style fantasy.

Maybe I'll keep it as a standby :o)

Or if you liked LOTR and the Hobbit or the Chronicles of Narnia.

Ill keep them in mind as possibilities, maybe once I have finished the Dresden Files

I advise you to skip the one called GHOST STORY...slow as molasses in February.

I'm reading book 12, Changes, at the moment

GHOST STORY is the one immediately following CHANGES.

I might have to skim read it just for continuity then :o)

Up to you but I think it's so slowly paced that even a skim takes forever.

I'm on Small Favor by the way.

You are definitely right about Ghost Story.It is difficult to believe that they are written by the same person

Even a good author has an off novel.

I'm now on to Cold Days so hopefully the standard will be back to normal. More importantly how are you doing with your challenge?

COLD DAYS is much better. As soon as it started, I kept hearing Aerosmith's "Back in the Saddle" in my head.

As for my own challenge, I finished three more.

Well done and keep up the good work :o)

Yeah. I keep forgetting the notebook I've been writing down the page numbers in.

Finally remembered the damned notebook!

Damn! 1-1/5th rows BEHIND schedule (6 books)!

Just over 3 weeks to complete your challenge Amber, you CAN do it :)

Thanks for the vote of confidence. *BG*

Still 6 behind... .

It's not over till the fat lady sings Amber ;o)

Won't be THAT much longer until she DOES, Kris! *wink* And that makes me hear https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osX6F... by Xavi Aguilar. Xavi Aguilar's version s the SCARIEST version I've heard my entire life!

Dammnit! 7 BEHIND!

Keep on reading hun :o)

*growls like a hungry AND pissed off Mama bear awoken from hibernation wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too early... .*

Another 4 behind schedule!

*epic double facepalm* Accidentally deleted a 12th book! Gonna be as difficult to catch up as it is to wade through hip deep super chunky peanut butter... .

Now there's a rather odd image to picture Amber. You don't do yourself any favours by accidentally deleting them instead of claiming them :o)

I know. And yes I knew the image that would be conjured up when I mentioned it would be interesting.

Added 4 more to the list of finished books. Page 1.

Keep it up less than two weeks to the year's end now so a big push is needed ;o)

Down adjusted my goal. Forgot I could do that. *blush* Now it says "On track."

Anything over what you have already read is astounding in my eyes. Just think so far your total is over a book a day, and that is no mean achievement. So well done to you and keep it up young lady :o)

Thanks...and that's on top of the busyness of the holiday season... .

Cool. 1 AHEAD... .

3 ahead!

Keep it up Amber :o)

2 ahead and if I read 3 more by the time the library closes for New Year's, I will have exceeded my goal by at least one book!

Seven books and if I finish them all soon, I will have exceeded by goal by 5.

I knew that I was right to have confidence in you Amber :o)

Just need to finish one more by Wednesday and I will have met my goal... .

Well done Amber and remember you would have passed your goal if you hadn't lost some information :o)

True.

I will be interested to hear your views on it as I have held off reading i..."

If I've answered this one already, go ahead and ignore. I ended up liking it enough that I've reread it several times in the past decade...plus I am on my SECOND personal copy. Got it as a Christmas present in '22.
