A Wheel Of Time Read Along discussion

Hello! I'm Jason White. I booktube as Jason's Weird Reads. I also podcast for The Darkness Dwells Podcast and Great Lakes Horror Company Podcast. There's probably more coming. LOL.

Please tell us about yourself and feel free to post a link to your YouTube channel if you have one.

Here's my channel:

Hello! I'm Carla, and I booktube at Carla's Book Bits and I read a lot of genre fiction.

Looking forward to reading this beast of a series with you guys!

Hey all! I'm Jenn and I have a booktube channel called The Bookish Ginger. I like to read a little bit of everything, with a lot of that being fantasy. I'm really looking forward to reading these books!

Hello! Carla invited me to the group. :)
I have a BookTube channel (Carol Marie Reads) and I read mostly fantasy and mystery books. Looking forward to tackling this series with others!

Welcome to the group, Carol! I’m going to check out your channel. I’m a booktube junkie. 🤣

I thought I recognized your name, Carol. I subbed you a little while ago and have been watching your videos. Good stuff! I’m glad you’re with us!

Hi, I'm Amanda. No Booktube channel (though I've thought about it! A bit camera shy though), but I'm one of Carla's subscribers. I've been meaning to read WOT for many years but keep putting it off.

Welcome, Amanda! I’m happy you’re with us.

Thanks! Just subscribed to you on YouTube!

Thank you, Amanda!

Hello, my name is Brock from. Excited to read up on the discussions and reactions to The Wheel of Time as you go.

Glad to have you on board, Brock! Hopefully the discussions for these books will be good ones.

Hi Brock! Welcome to the group. I’m happy that you’re here with us!

Hi, my name is Caleb. I am 300 pages into The Eye of the World. I have never read anything by Robert Jordan before. I'm looking forward to having others to experience this with. I am planning to continue on at my own pace (which is usually quicker than one book a month), but hopefully I can align that with this. Nice to meet you all!

Welcome, Caleb! Glad to have you on board.

Hi everyone! I'm Marti, I read mostly horror, fantasy & scifi. I'm interested in checking out more epic fantasy, so I'm excited to join in on at least book one of this read along :)

Hi, Marti! Welcome to the group!

*ETA I went to sub your channel and found that I already am subbed! LOL

Hey all! I just saw Jason's video reminding us about this read along. I read The Eye of the World last year and have been meaning to pick up the series again but never got around to it. I thought I might as well join in with this because it will be good to discuss it with others! I don't usually read much fantasy, so this will definitely be interesting for me :)

(My BookTube channel is Words Words Everywhere)

Welcome, Mark! I’m looking forward to your thoughts.

Hi everyone! My name is Jenny. I am an avid booktube WATCHER but don't have a channel of my own. I heard about this readathon from Jason.

As I am a bit older, I actually started the series years back even before Brandon Sanderson took over and wrote the last 3 books. I think I got somewhere around book 6 before life got in the way and I stopped reading the series. I however continued to buy the books so have the whole series in original hardcover versions. I've been meaning to get back to it and this seemed like the perfect time to give it a go. I hope I can keep up!

Awesome! Welcome, Jenny! Happy to have you on board!

Welcome Kim! I hope that you enjoy Eye Of The World enough to continue with the series too! 😀

Hi, I'm Todd! I can't remember what my Booktube channel name is, so I'll have to get back to you folks on that one! Cheers my friends!

Hey Todd!! Glad to see you here!

Welcome Regina! So glad to see you here!

Hi, I am Peg, Retired with lots of time to read. I read the first of this series several years ago and still remember the wonderful imagery and world-building and have always wanted to read more so hopefully this is the time!
My Booktube channel is “Peg the Book Prize Addict” but glad we are doing this on Goodreads as it will include everybody and I actually prefer to write about books when it is something this detailed. Let the reading begin!

Hello, Peg! I’m happy that you have joined us! This is going to be so much fun.

Hello everyone. My name is Mindy. My booktube channel is Mindy's Book Journey https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLd_...
I read pretty much every genre. My favorites include horror, fantasy, and sci-fi.
I have wanted to read this series since 2012, and I am so happy that I am finally making the plunge. Going to make this dream a reality. :)

Hi Mindy!! Welcome to the group!

I just commented on Jason's announcement and saw the update!
Like I mentioned there, I was just talking about doing this with a few days ago so I'm excited to find a group doing it. My name is Sarah, I used to booktube but I'm mostly just active here and on Instagram (SarrieStewart).
I'm looking forward to revisiting the series!

Welcome to the read along, Sarah!! I’m glad to see you here! This is going to be a lot of fun!

Hi my name is Jane and I'm a SAHM from Australia. I live in a rural area and love reading- always have. I enjoy books from all genres and this is my first time reading the WoT series.

Welcome, Jane! So glad that you’ve joined on with us!

Hi everyone! My name is Navi. I did start a booktube channel a few months ago but found making videos took away from my precious reading time. I may come back though!

It's actually kind of crazy because I was thinking of starting this series in February. I'm glad I didn't get around to it because I can now read along with the rest of you :)

Hi Navi! I remember your Youtube channel, I loved watching your videos. Soo good to see you on here too!

On a side note, I'm glad so many people are joining us for this! It's getting closer, so hopefully we all have fun!

Welcome, Navi!! I’m so happy that you’ve joined in!

Antipodean greetings! My name is Luke. I live in Canberra, Australia, don't have a youtube channel but enjoy reading books and watching videos of people talking about books they love.

I'm trying to read 100 books this year - 16 down so far - so this read along should fit in nicely. I'm also doing march mystery madness, march of the mammoths and a re-read along. I am in for a busy month... Did I mention I work full-time?

I love, LOVE LoTR but have never read The Wheel of Time. I'm looking forward to reading the series and talking about it with everyone here. I'm going to try to find physical copies at the local used bookstores of the whole series but will resort to digital copies in uttermost need.

Welcome to the read along Luke!

Hi Carla! I may make an appearance again with my March TBR. There's so many great readathons taking place next month! :)

Hi, My name is Rachel. I heard about this read along from the Steve Donoghue channel. I have seen this series, but never read it, or know what its about. So I'm going into this cold turkey. I have been wanting to read a long fantasy series for a minute now.

Hi Rachel!! Welcome to the read along!

Hello, I am Pauline. Hello to everybody. :) I have no booktube channel but am an avid watcher. One day I will have to courage to join the community. In the meantime I am content on watching, listening and learning all about books, both old and new. Fantasy fiction is my favorite fiction, all thanks to Robert Jordan’s WoT. :)

Welcome, Pauline! I’m looking forward to talking WoT with you.

Hello, I'm Sarah! I've never read the series before but I love fantasy novels and I'm really looking forward to this :)

Welcome to the read along, Sarah!

Hi all, my name is Audrey.

I love Sci-fi and Fantasy books & films. I do stray into other genres occasionally though.

I’ve been reading the fantasy genre since I read “The Hobbit” when I was given it to read at school age8.

I got tEotW from my local library in 1991 swiftly followed by tGH. I re-read (1-3 times) before every new book came out, depending on how many years between books. Lost count how many times I’ve read them all to be honest.

Looking forward to this group read :)

So glad to see you here, Audrey! It's great to have someone who has read the series and knows it inside out.

Hi everyone! I’m Victoria. I’m a huge reader, and I love watching booktube channels. I stumbled across Jason’s video announcement earlier this week and was immediately excited since I just started reading the WoT series! I love reading fantasy series, but haven’t read too many. I’m very excited to be reading this epic series with all of you!

Welcome everyone! I'm excited to see that there has been so much more interest than I thought there would be :D

I thought I’d hear crickets honestly! Lol
