Part of me likes reading multiple things at once, but doing that takes longer to finish a book. Another part says just stick with one book and finish it quicker. I've also been thinking about skimming through <i>NOTW </i> again, just to freshen up, but I dunno.<br /><br />I finished reading "Understand," the short story by Ted Chiang you recommended. Wow.

I don't know if I want to read through some of the other shorts in the book or [see above paragraph].<br /><br /><i>Elantris</i> definitely paled in comparison to <i>Mistborn</i>, but it still was pretty good.

I think that's Bradley's younger, lesser-known brother.logankstewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12269634215857320344noreply@blogger.com
