Well, I just finished _The Name of the Wind Day 1_ and it wasn't a bad book.. it just didn't move very well. The first book of a trilogy should make you want to read the next. But, this one doesn't, at least for me. The books started a bit slow and it was a bit disjointed. It seemed to smooth out at one point but then dragged again. It got interesting for a few chapters but then blah.

So, what to read next? I am considering the next Clare Furgesen, Russ Alstyne book that I have yet to read. I always enjoys those. Or, the WWW series that Tom recommended, although the third one is $12 which is a bit steep for my blood.

The next Nebula/Hugo joint winner for me would be _Rendezvous With Rama_ not in the Kindle store, the year after that _The Disposed_ is in the kindle store.. so maybe that.

Any recos? What are all the cool kids on the forum reading recently?
