140 pages into my reread of HD and I can see why I love HD so much more than EoS. I can sum it up in one word.
Direction.
We have goals, we know where we want to go, we have a mission, we have stakes.
EoS was fun but it felt like it was lacking progression.
HD CHANGES THAT FOR THE BETTER!

Finished up EoS and moving on to my reread of Howling Dark!
Chapter 1 of HD is FILLED with info on what's going on.
There's a lot to keep track of from people, relationships, past battles, ships, planets and the current objective.
Overwhelming? Maybe, but for good reason π¦Ύ

I've been listening to The Stand off and on now for a couple of weeks and it's been amazing. Down right scary at times too.
King's character work is top tier where each person feels real almost immediately.
Also, whenever I sneeze, this book now pops into my brain π³
15% into the story so far!

EoS Chapter 1 -
"But before I was any of these, I was a son."
RR Chapter 1 -
"The first thing you should know about me is I am my father's son."
COINCIDENCE?!?!?!
I think so, maybe, probably not π

20 chapters into my 3rd reread of EoS and it's been going great.
You can really tell that Ruocchio had a grand plan for this series with so many little details that flash forward in future books.
However, I can also see why some folks don't jive with it...

My two audio listens are truly a magical experience πͺπ
It's been over 15 years since I've read a Harry Potter book and wow, I've forgotten how much fun they are.
I'm also going through LotR for the first time and again WOW, I can now see why Tolkien is such a legend in the fantasy genre.
