It was my first time joining one of the chats and I really enjoyed it! Looking forward to the next one. :)

I'll try to make it to the chat if I can, but I may fall behind in the readalong as I've got two crazy busy weeks ahead of me (including a wedding and a 50th anniversary party to organize).

You can always skim. ;)

Wait, are you getting married and having a 50th anniversary? Huh...


Note for anyone having trouble keeping pace: I highly recommended the audio books if you're a busy bee. You can get them on the Kindle app, and they are not too terribly expensive.
You can listen to them during your commute and when doing chores and cooking. I've been working full time and starting the school semester the past couple weeks, and have been able to keep pace using this method. It works!

Didn't say it was *my* wedding or anniversary.

"I'm only here for the food."

Hello Everybody,

This seems like a good time to remind people that I lurk here and that I sometimes comment, but that I will not be doing that once the new book comes out. I'll take a break so as not to interfere with any conversation. I'm not a member, so I never read the locked posts. I'm not saying you have to put anything critical behind a wall! I mean, worst case scenario, you hurt my VERY DELICATE FEELINGS and get eaten in effigy by a monster in the next book.

We like it when the veil between author and readers is thin. ;) Please never stop lurking!

That said, I see what you're saying. But let me assure you the only locked posts I've seen 'round these parts have more to do with the general sneakiness common among QT fans, than anything sinister. We're not critics behind locked doors. This is genuinely the friendliest and most positive fandom I've ever been in. <3

I know some people who would think it an honor to be eaten by a dragon or something.
