I've been listening to the audiobook (I'm on Wise Man's Fear now) while
working on a painting. The leisurely, drawn-out pace seems to fit well, as the painting is taking a very long time. I feel like I can't really say anything about it as a whole until the story is actually finished, but I'm enjoying the listen. (Haven't got to the fairy sex part yet!)
I notice that Rothfuss consistently uses "lay" instead of "laid." Like "he lay his hand on my arm." And he even says "lying his clothes across the back of the chair." It's very odd. I hear people using "lay" when it should be "lie" all the time, but this is the other way around.
