3. Got my copy

That book is sitting on my counter at home, untouched.

I usually devour books. I mean, finish the thing sleep-deprived and coffee-saturated in the wee-hours of the morning.

I can't even pick this one up. Why?

Because I'm waiting for a long weekend, where I can stock up on my favorite reading snacks (good cheese, fruit, chewy bread, some nice tea), wear some comfy pajamas, send the family off for some fun shopping, and really savour this read. This is Jordan's legacy. The final collaboration, the end of a tale about the end of an Age, told while the storyteller had the End looming before him.

I'm certain that Sanderson's hand on the pen will lighten things up, but I plan on really enjoying this book in fine style.
