They aren't all fabulous. There's one in Sheffield (not the city centre one) and I swear I have more books here.

Foyles is still nice, but I really miss Compendium bookshop in Camden. That was the greatest place to people watch, find weird books and encounter the sometimes even weirder authors.They aren't all fabulous. There's one in Sheffield (not the city centre one) and I swear I have more books here.
There's about four books in the middle that are pure filler. Saying that, it's a fantastic yarn.Starting to reread The Wheel of Time books...yeah, I know it'll take me a while![]()
Indeed, it does get a little bigger down in the middle books, but they really stuck the landing with the ending!There's about four books in the middle that are pure filler. Saying that, it's a fantastic yarn.
Yeah, Sanderson did a good job finishing it.Indeed, it does get a little bigger down in the middle books, but they really stuck the landing with the ending!
Best thing about going to Hay, when it's not festival time, is wandering round the bookshops.Foyles is still nice, but I really miss Compendium bookshop in Camden. That was the greatest place to people watch, find weird books and encounter the sometimes even weirder authors.

I used to go every year when I lived in London. Loved it. I'm seriously thinking of walking the Offa's Dyke Path next year with a stop off in Hay for festival. Of course I'd have to ship the three tonne of books I always buy.I've never been to Hay, festival or not. Maybe one of these days ...

Hay is amazing. I pretty much walk around drooling and squirting and squealing, with arms like an orangutan from carrying bags of books.I've never been to Hay, festival or not. Maybe one of these days ...

Depends on what you're looking for with the TV series. It is based on the books but they took some creative liberties. They couldn't possibly fit everything from the books into the show. With that being said, I enjoyed the second season much more then the first.Tried rereading that a bit ago and failed miserably. Is the tv series as bad as I've heard?
