Book 1 of The Wheel of Time
Well, here goes. This makes about the fourth time I've read this book, but not since high school. It used to be that every time a new book came out, I'd start back from the beginning and go again. I got frustrated with the lack of series continuation, and then the author died, but now I understand that the series finishes strongly.
I kept collecting the books, but then I got intimidated by the time commitment. But, well, I guess if I'm going to go for it, now's as good a time as any. So I'm going to start, and see how it goes. This series has been a part of my life, staring at me from my bookshelf, for better than two decades. It's time to finally read it.
This one was really good, and reminded me why I kept on with this series all these years. There were more limitations in it than I noticed in high school, and I'm finding it much more frustrating that men and women seem to be incapable of communicating with or respecting the other gender. In high school, I didn't notice it much. Yay growth?
