“Gah!” I vented as I closed the book cover, the desire to read further and know more only relenting with the knowledge that there were no more words to read—at least, not yet. There would be, but only with the passing of time. Time I knew would be necessary for such a work, but that I resented nonetheless.
I have spent the last two months re-reading the first two books of the Stormlight Archive, the three-book (so far) series written by Brandon Sanderson that had me captivated from the first page. When the third book was published, I knew I had to buy it. I suppose it seems a bit silly, buying the third book of a series when you don’t already own the first two, but for someone who uses the public library more often than 2/3 of the population, waiting to get my hands on a copy seemed like torture.
