"What a tremendous sin impatience is. It blinds us to the moment before us. And it is only when that moment has passed, do we look back and see it was full of treasures."

Hahaha. "Those fucking Aes Sedai were right!" #wot

Are you a jaded optimist like me? READ THIS BOOK.

It's been quite a while since a book has made me cry so.

OMGWTFBBQ... Amber... OMG! Best secret evar.

It's been over two and a half years since I finished the Farseer Trilogy. It's so wonderful to be spending time with Fitz and the Fool again.

Ahhh, the voice of Kate Reading and Michael Kramer is like a warm blanket that smells like home.

Not sure if this is a fiction book or astrophysics textbook...

I'm sad to start the last released book in the Dresden Files. Hurry up Jim, and release more books!

I want to play Stichstock but instead of wands, the person guarding the balloon has 2 cow prods.

Stupid book making me cry right before work.

"Your man Jesus seems to me a bit of a son-of-a-bitch when it comes to women. Was he ever married?" "No, but his girlfriend was a whole." "Well, that's a start"

Wow, book 2 in the Dark Tower series is so much better than book 1.

Sigh. I hate getting a real depressing point in a book right as I get to work.

This is first book that I've read that doesn't condemn Apple's Newton as a failed venture. I like it.

Eh, I was hoping for more of a business book than a biography. Putting this back on the shelf for a while.

Nearly 700 pages in and they finally reveal the main plot. Neal Stephenson is such a good writer, it doesn't matter.

Oh, my! This is a big book!

This is a very different book from what I am used to. There was a foreword that said something like, this book is very different... stick with it. So I will. It's fiction based on eastern religion, which is foreign to me.

Arg, I am so close finishing! I don't want to go to work. I want to finish this book now! It's so good.

If you ever wanted to know what it is like to work in IT, read the first part of the first chapter.

Why can't all nonfiction books be this entertaining? Transpootion... Classic!

I think I need to set this aside for right now. Good stuff here, but my list of other nonfiction books I want to read right now is too inviting.

I have no idea if I'll ever really use this information, but I feel so smart right now even though I've only finished chapter 1.
