Oh, and regarding The Wheel of Time series . . . I got through the 4th book and that was as far as I got. I even bought all the books, but I just kept getting lost with so many characters and not getting back to a particular story line for hundreds of pages drove me to exasperation.

Regulators and Desperation--both excellent reads.

getting ready to read Harbingers by F Paul Wilson...

Just started reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. It's been on my list for a while.

I’m currently in the middle of Museum of Terror Vol. 2 by Junji Ito. I’d read these Tomie stories years ago, but hadn’t come back to them in a while. I’m finding them to even stranger, even scarier, even better than the first time.

This week, I’ll dive into Cerebus Vol. 9: Reads and probably Let It Be, by Colin Meloy, his memoir related to the Replacements’ album of the same name.
