Okay so after a 12 year gap I’ve finally decided to start my A Song of Ice and Fire re-read. Only difference between now and 12 years ago is that I have two kids, so I imagine this might take a while.
So, I’m reading A Game of Thrones. I’m only a few chapters in, but I’ve already fallen in love with G.R.R’s writing style. The first few chapters have so much work to do to set the world up, but he handles it so well it’s almost unnoticeable when a character is delivering a lore dump.
What are you reading?
I’m three quarters of the way through the stormlight archive after nearly a year! It’s superb but very very long. The dialogue and characters are actually worse than I expected but the story and world building is incredible. And there was recently finally an emotional moment for me.
I’m also reading the secret barrister which makes the bottom of your stomach fall out with how sick you feel. This Tory government has taken something that was t working well and ground it into the dust so it barely works at all. Everything is to get cases processed faster instead of obtaining justice.
