It's one of my favorite books as well. I've only watched the first night, but I quite enjoyed it. Karellen looked really good.

I remember feeling the same way when I read The Sum of All Men. It was really a great book, and the magic was very well done for the most part( I didn't like the elemental magic very much). I felt like the sequels all went downhill though.

I've started Gardens of the Moon for the...third? time. I'm trying to keep my pace pretty slow so that I don't get as lost and confused as I did originally, and I'm actually enjoying it this time around. It's still not very cohesive feeling, but it is readable right now so maybe I'll finally break through and be able to read the rest of the series.

Awwww, we love our admins Protecting us from over hyped spoiling trolls

Are y'all grinching on the warm weather?!? I mean...okay it's been really wet and windy too, but those days that's been good? Beautiful!

Quiver, I hate you I've wasted so much time reading those now, they're so good.

Personally, I don't think I'm ever going to feel like the EU books I've read have been a waste. I'm not sure about Old Republic books, the video game tie ins might be safe, but officially speaking all of the EU is non canon. Whether anyone is going to redo that early era stuff is questionable, so I guess I'll just say that I don't know yet.

I love the Timothy Zhan books, especially the original Thrawn trilogy. The building suspense in his later books was really cool, but with the discontinued EU I guess I'll never get to see that finish up. The two KotoR games are fantastic, I've played both easily a dozen times. There are some really amazing mods as well that are definitely worth looking into. The only Star Wars tv series I've enjoyed was the mini series that came out about eight years ago. It was what Attack of the Clones should have been, it's seriously a beautiful and deep show that explored Anakin Sooooo well. The Jedi Knight video games are worth mentioning as well, but I've never played battlefront or republican commando so I don't know how good they are.

There's a WoB that there's a limit to how far a Spren can go while acting as a shard weapon, so no, shard arrows are out. The above idea might work though.

Boy advice?... Ehhh, my general advice is if you start to crush on somebody then just try to become their friend. If they're nice then you can become good friends and get used to each other and then maybe move on to more than friends. If they aren't actually the type of person you like, then it should be easier to back away un awkwardly. There's no rushing into anything and maybe putting them off this way. How to become their friend? Depends. My ways are styled to me, and don't necessarily translate to you. Basically, do whatever feels comfortable and nice and don't overthink. Overthinking leads to awkwardness, which is teenager ness, but should be avoided.

I've read the first two of that series, and....they weren't for me. I absolutely adore the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy, but the Shadow books were too grim for me. They're in the vein of a less extreme AsoIaF, although that might not be immediately obvious.

Basically any time I watch anime. I tend to keep it on the down under because people consider it Sooo nerdy( like the painfully socially awkward gross stereotype) which I'm nothing like. I watch anime rather sparingly, and I don't obsess about it very often any more. It's really kind of annoying, because I feel guilty about watching very deep meaningful shows while hearing people getting excited about GoT or Walking Dead, and I don't get how they don't get the hypocrisy. Rant over

Caught up on Arrow Y'all have discussed enough spoilers open I don't think I'm gonna bother Damien doing really well again, maybe a little too upbeat, but it fit the ending well. Someone really needs to order an air strike on him though. I guess that's true of most villains, but still. Oliver/Felicity was fantastic! Although them arguing about protection, yet again, right after Laurel and Lance?...Kinda getting tired of it. Find a different part of your relationship to figure out! Diggle, ehh, okay. Thea, erm, guess not much screen time, her fighting was good though. The fact that The Evil Plan is finally getting in gear is cool, although it kinda feels like it's a re skin of Merlyn's evil plan. I'm interested in how Damien's family(?) factors into it. Also, can I just say I really enjoy how they've worked Curtis and the Flash police captain in? I feel like they've done a good job of introducing those two character as characters, but also as gay. It feels more like Sanderson trying to explore how to incorporate them than just as a tributary or comedic character. I never felt that with Ras's daughter, that always felt weird and off, but I like Curtis.

So I started physics two about two weeks ago, and I'm really struggling. I did pretty well in physics one, but I'm falling further and further back now, and I'm really starting to panic. I don't think the material is actually harder to do, but learning it has been ridiculously hard. The material just keeps evading me, and I've been struggling trying to make the time for studying. While my life is busy beyond optimal, I'm inclined to blame the book more than myself on this one. It's giving me a ton of information, but not making it clear what I actually need to know, and not explaining those parts very clearly.

First was The Gathering Storm. Alcatraz, Towers of Midnight, and Way of Kings all followed pretty quickly. My favorite is the Mistborn Trilogy.

I've been really busy, so I've only just now caught up on the last episode of Flash. Hmmm, fun, but a little underwhelming I guess. It feels like it's trying to set stuff up even more, and I just feel like we've been doing that for ages, can we finally see it play out?

I got three hours of sleep Sunday night. It was bad. Just couldn't fall asleep. The time did go pretty quickly though, I wasn't counting the minutes in a painful laborious way, I was still awake though. Also, yesterday was leg day. Pain!

I've never had the opportunity to wear a cravat, so I don't know if I could pull one off or not. I know that I can do bowties great though, and ties are fine.

I think the part of the December that gets on my nerves is the prevalent feeling of an OCD perfectionism. I notice it in the songs, in the commercialism, in the stereotyped perfect Christmas family gathering and dinner, and I really don't like it. My family's pretty decent about keeping it simple, I've mentioned that, but still....it gets to me. Delightful, if you're still reading this thread, do you get tired of Christmas stuff? Or are you separated, or separate yourself from it enough that you don't think about it very much? Do you like Hanukkah? Sorry if that's a lot of questions, I'm not familiar with anyone Jewish but I'm curious about this kind of thing.

My problem with them was that they could sometimes be so relevant that I wasn't sure why they weren't just a chapter. I strongly dislike long chapters, so the prologues bothered me a lot.Oh, and on topic, I finished Hogfather and the Aeronaut's windlass, both were excellent. Currently relistening to Legion skin deep, and a hundred pages into The Black Powder War.

I think this pretty fair. The corruption follows levels that have been seen through the world and history, and are therefore exactly the kind of thing I would expect from Brandon.

The only part of Christmas that I'm really grinchy about is the music. A whole month, year after year after year, if the same overly "perfected" songs makes me die inside a little. I probably would be a bit more of a grinch if we did extended family for Christmas Day, but thankfully we always do it a week before or after, so Christmas Day is super chill.

I really like this....it would also help explore squire ness, which im assuming will become more and more important.

I finished Tales of Zestiria. It was a lot of fun, and compares well to Symphonia(the only other tales game I've played.) I thought the story could've gone deeper. Symphonia really awed me by how deep the plot was, but also by how impressive the side stories could be. I think the plot was somehow understated in Zestiria, it felt like they tried to deepen it, but maybe implied the depth too much. Despite my criticisms, it really was a great game, and I'm looking forward to 100% it and an eventual replay. During the holiday sale I bought Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning for $5. I've put almost ten hours into it so far, and my money was well spent. I'm playing a female Mage, and really quite enjoying it. I could see myself really enjoying a melee or stealth style though, or some combination. The leveling system is pretty friendly too, which is good because some RPGs can get kinda crazy with the leveling. My biggest issue so far, is that the dungeons I've been in so far have been lackluster, and the world feels flat. It's supposed to be an open world game, but to me, a game is only open world if there's plenty of climbing and such. I like my batman and Xenoblade skyscraper and mountain climbing.

I've finished it! It was really good. I liked the ending, reminded me of The Final Empire where you realize that what's going on is much scarier than you'd thought. The Etherialists were definitely a favorite part.
