ur right 😵‍💫😵‍💫 i will take those words of advice

My vote is to thrift them all so you have a complete collection lol. I think I mentioned I never noticed the slog BUT I definitely seem to enjoy things other people find boring lol. Honestly can't wait for your reviews so I'm reminded why it's considered a slog.

I think it depends on which characters you like/dislike. Worst case scenario read fast and then find some good summaries for a recap in case you think you missed something. Go for it!

now im curious to know which books u did consider a slog :D

@Nel None 🫣 I loved the entire series. Did I get bored and frustrated during parts? Absolutely. But I read it as one long story.

Epic fantasy is my favorite so I just accept that with such a large amount of characters and a massive world- there will be times I’m not completely invested and keep going. I just love diving into a large universe and living there for a while lol. I also switched back and forth between the ebook and audio versions so I think that helped.

ah okay, ill prob just read the slog books online or get a copy from the library and if i like them, end up buying them at regular price. hopefully, i do enjoy them but, if not, i will prob try to thrift them just to complete the collection.

i think i will be able to tolerate most characters but, if they're full-length novels about either elayne or egwene...

@Nel Ohhhhhh I thought you meant in the Wheel of Time series 🤣 I’m sure I have but I’d have to think about which ones

if u have to think about it i doesnt count :D

@Nel 🤣🤣🤣 Well I have a terrible memory and vet my books pretty thoroughly before I read them. I also have not logged every book I’ve DNF’d in the past so there might be lots of slogs out there for me lolol
