Oh yes. Every few months or so I jump back into this world. I enjoy them, the cast of characters are good.

Currently reading 3 books, The Eye of the World & Eragon which are both rereads. Eragon is for a challenge, The Eye of the World because I want to move on to The Great Hunt, I never seem to pick it up and I need a refresher. This is my 3rd reading of TEOTW. And a first time read of Reunion in Death.

I feel the same way, that or library books get returned unread because I finally get around to my own books. For me it's a cycle, stack of lib books, my books get forgotten. Weeks later, still have a stack from the lib ( a new one) but then I go oh look what's this book on my shelf. Books go back to lib with maybe one read.

Amazon seems to be picking up some great titles.

It's very rare for me to have only one book going at a time. I tend to have upwards to 5 sometimes. There's always a physical copy either one of my own or a library copy or sometimes both, an ecopy or two...sometimes 3. An audio for housework and if I'm reading a chapter book to my daughter.

I'm loving Elantris so far, Mistborn is yet anther Sanderson that has been sitting on my shelves for years now.

I'm finally reading my first Brandson Sanderson novel, he is an author I've wanted to read for a while now and like many books/authors I own I've been holding out on reading them. My brain does this whole lets save the best for last kind of thing, but alas why wait, why waste my time reading less then stellar books.
