Summer is over, school has started, Megan is back in Ohio knitting a new pair of socks for her upcoming trip to Boston as a Boston-Globe Horn Book Awards Honoree, and thesehnsucht 's recent post brings to mind just how long it has been since we had a WSK conversation.

What books have you read recently that really left an impression on you?  What are the ones on your To Be Read or Upcoming New Release lists that you are simply itching to get at?

He was at the Comic Con panel and people kept mentioning how he needs to finish his series! Megan said it was like a panel for people who take too long to finish their books. "But you just had one out!" I told her. :)

OMG, you were at that panel? I'm sooo jealous.

And haha to the finishing serie comment. At least Megan stick to her publishing date! (Sorry Mr.Rothfuss, can't help whining.)

Also very jealous you were at that panel.

At least Megan stick to her publishing date!

And her books can stand alone. There is closure at the end. So even if she never finished another one (God forbid) the story doesn't feel totally incomplete. There was no kind of closure at the end of The Name of the Wind.

I had originally intended to make a post about it but I never did! Maybe I'll do that... It was very interesting, they discussed various things about epic fantasy, basically.

OH, do make a post! I'd love to hear what they had to say.
