Okay so after a 12 year gap I've finally decided to start my A Song of Ice and Fire re-read. Only difference between now and 12 years ago is that I have two kids, so I imagine this might take a while.

So, I'm reading A Game of Thrones. I'm only a few chapters in, but I've already fallen in love with G.R.R's writing style. The first few chapters have so much work to do to set the world up, but he handles it so well it's almost unnoticeable when a character is delivering a lore dump.

What are you reading?

That's a big undertaking - it must be three or four feet of books!

I've been in a bit of a rut reading-wise, stuck on Garth Marenghi's TerrorTome (just busy and I keep trying to get some reading in when I go to bed and then I wake up with the book on my pillow and the side light still on), so I thought I'd get some comics read - just finished Klaus and started The DC Universe of Mike Mignola. Feel like I am getting my momentum back and will box off the book and bounce on to something tasty in my teetering to-read pile as there are quite a few books in there I am itching to read.
