Oz ,'First Date'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
I loved Paladin of Souls. I'm trying to convince myself to wait for the PB on the third book, but it might just get me.
I lucked out and got the HB of Paladin of Souls at bookcloseouts.com for cheap, so now I'm loathe to drop the 40 bones for the new book without hanging out for a while and seeing if I can catch a similar break.
I'll be waiting for the next one to come out in paperback, because I find hardbacks uncomfortable to read. A lifetime of conditioning. But I also picked up the second volume of the Baroque Cycle, so that should keep me busy for a while.

Yeah, I generally feel that way too.
Baroque Cycle?
Baroque Cycle?
Neal Stephenson tomes, the first one was Quicksilver, I think. Age of Enlightenment prequels to Cryptonomicon, more or less.
Baroque Cycle - Neal Stephenson's novels, set during the, what, 1600s? I couldn't even finish the first one, it induced snores in me, and I normally like his work.
Due to various hand problems, I am pretty much physically incapable of reading hardback books without a physical desk to set it on.

This is me. I will give the Baroque Cycle another try sometime, but Quicksilver wasn't grabbing me and I've read and enjoyed his previous stuff.
The ex gave me the first two, and I fought and clawed my way through the first one, but the second... Maybe I'll get around to it one day, but I'll have forgotten everything that happened in the first one!
Is there a site anywhere that might sum up what happens in Diana Gabaldon's Outlander? I read it several years ago and want to read the next book, but can't remember what the heck really happened, other than Woman Time Travels, Woman Has Hot Sex With Man In Past, Man In Past Undergoes Woeful Trauma (and if you read the book, I think you know what I mean).
Alicia, that's pretty much the book.
Ha! Excellent. I couldn't remember if there was something important I'd need to remember before starting the next book.
Because I'd forgotten most of Harry Potter 5 before starting the new one, and was so frustrated for about half of it, because I wished I'd gone and skimmed 5 again to remind myself. Outlander would not make for good skimming.
