How deliciously different we all are! I like both Patrick O'Brien and McMaster Bujold (which is maybe the case with some of other people) and yet you only like one.

So, should I read Wool which you also like because you like Bujold, or should I not because you don't like O'Brien?

I feel a huge pressure to read "Wool" now, as many people here have put it in their "Best" section.

But I don't like to be told what to do (or what to read)!
And yet how can I resist so many recommendations?

Contradictory inputs... Cannot compute... Aaaaarrrgghhhh!!!!!
