What live reading? I mean, I know she's doing one, but I didn't realise it was being televised?
There's always been a lot of tension between Lois and me, and it's not so much that I want to kill her, it's just, I want her to not be alive anymore.

I am grabbing it at about 8am in the morning (I was considering getting it at midnight, but I'm lazy), getting back home, finding a comfortable couch/bed/armchair, grabbing some food and drink supplies, and then reading all day long.

If I really wanted to read it quickly, I could do it in three or four hours; however, this being the last one and all, I might take it a bit slower and enjoy every revelation. So probably all of Saturday.

I've been taking my time, but it's been so good I couldn't slow down. I'm 100 pages from finishing.

:D:(

Ditto, Baroness Ink! Excluding very reluctant breaks for food and exercise, took me around 7-8 hours. I couldnt resist reading straight through XD
Got a poem or short story you want me to critique?
