January 2015: What are you reading?
- Thread starter Jon Snow
- Start date
This will be my fourth year trying to finish everything Malazan. Started back in 2012 reading GoTM and DG. I didn't really get into it all that much, so I've waited a bit and after reading that MoI was a great step-up from the previous two it finally clicked and then I read MoI, HoC, MT and TBH (and NoK) back-to-back. Then I started to try several new authors and, generally, broadened my horizons. Last year I continued with RG, TtH (and RotCG, SW, OST). So I hope I'll finally get around to reading DoD & TCG (+ BaB, Assail) this year.
I love the books tremendously, but I just want to read way too many books from lots of different authors and that's starting to interfere with being able to finish/continue series I've already started.
On topic: Only 100 pages to go with Consider Phlebas, I like the parts that reflect on the Culture and other civilizations a lot, the story itself is fairly straight-forward. I'm curious about the ending.

I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it. I wonder how will I react, seeing that Sneaky doesn't remember much other then general impression.

Not to focus on the negative - but I'm kind of curious as to who is on that list... another thread mayhap?
Just finished Changes. That was a cracker, so much so that I'm going to indulge in some delayed gratification and wait a book or two before I read the next one, let the cliff hanger really dangle out there. I'm tempted by all this talk of the Martian but I have a C.P.Sansom book from my stocking I feel obliged to read first (really going to have to put a list out there next year).
