It was nice to see what he has enjoyed reading this year. I've read all of Malcolm Gladwell's books. Tipping Point was great but I think that Blink was even better.

I loved Uglies and Watchmen too, and I definitely want to try Jim Butcher! Now I definitely need to read Warbreaker, too! I’m so glad to have a peek at what Sanderson enjoys for reading!

I put the Mistborn trilogy on my Christmas wishlist this year since I heard such great reviews (Ana&Thea's included) for it :mrgreen: and ur list includes two of my faves: Watchmen and Uglies! Haven't read the others but Dresden Files Book One is on my tbr list, and though it's not Tipping Point,so is Outliers by the same author. Based on these matches, I'm adding all the other books here to my tbr pile! lol hey Brandon!

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 21:39:31 +0000 http://thebooksmugglers.com/?p=7192#comment-15089 I was very, very worried about what would happen to Rand, Perrin, Matt, and all their ladies in the hands of someone whose first name wasn't 'Robert' and last name wasn't 'Jordan', so I approached TGS with great caution. Huge, huge relief when my fears turned out to be groundless! With the single exception of the jarring use of 'Great!' as an expression of sarcasm a couple of times, I wouldn't have been able to tell the story was written by another author than the one who brought us the previous volumes. Well done. So it may go without saying that the Mistborn books are now on my TBR.

Finger's crossed, I should be getting the first for Christmas. x I’m in love with the Dresden Files, Harry makes me laugh so much.

Good heavens. I will wait until ALL those books are out to invest in that one. But it does sound good, from my research :-) Ten volume epic fantasy?! Good heavens.
