Judith, I love McCammon's books. Lots of good reading.
I'm still working my way through The Wheel of Time. I'm enjoying it a lot more than I did last time I read it. Jordan was a good writer. I suspect that last time I read the books I was skim-reading, speed-reading, which I often did when I was still working. Since I retired I've slowed down my reading, and it makes a difference.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I finished Scalzi's The Human Division and The End of All Things and hope to get the 7th in the series very soon. In the meantime, I'm reading The Personals: The Human Stories Behind the Small Ads by Brian O'Connell.
Sometimes I think I read too much and play too many games, but then I laugh and either turn the page or keep on clicking.

Nearly finished the latest Scalzi book. I think anone that enjoyed the earlier novels will enjoy this.
Quantity has a quality all of its own

I finished The Shattering Peace last night. It did not disappoint in any way. I wonder if Scalzi intends this one to end the series. It would be appropriate, but I could hope for more. In the meantime, there are more of his books I haven't read yet and other authors' stories crying for my attention. Life is good!

Marian, I remember it being pretty creepy, but it's been that long since I read it too. Need to see if I still have it somewhere.
