    2.5 years ago I started the Wheel of Time. I wanted to read it before watching the series, not knowing it was 14 books & thousands of words. Tonight, I finished it. It's probably the best series I've ever read, or will ever read. And now I have serious series grief. #books #wheeloftime #wot

    The Wheel of Time show will always be amazing to me and I don't care. It has its flaws yes, but because of this show existing, my wife was able to read the books because she understood them. She experienced worlds she never would have without them. For that I will be grateful.

    I haven't sat down and read a proper book in what feels like a long time but I was obsessed with reading when I was a kid. Anyway I started the Wheel of Time series since it's the only way to find out what happens after the tv series leaves off and I'm hooked. Truly I am in my happy elderly lady era
