Still reading The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson. Book 2 in the series. I am more than halfway through, so should be able to finish it this week.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Not going to read the spoilers. May come back in an year or so to look at them though.

Glad to hear that it's great!

I was probably liberal with the tag, but I'd rather lean towards not impacting the experience at all.

My head was spinning that night with all the possibilities for the second half though. (I definitely didn't start War of Kings as a physical book immediately after to see what extra details I pick up. That would make me a crazy person.)

Haha, I don't think it would make you a crazy person, just shows the impact of the final book.

And thanks for being liberal with it, I want to know nothing about it, no matter how small.

lol I was joking because I did exactly that.

The context of knowing the whole series lets you pick up a lot of detail all the way back to the opening scene of Way of Kings.

Heh, I took it as you really wanted to, but didn't. I stand corrected.
