At one point, I'd read every ST novel available - no longer true. I've mostly lost interest.
Ditto. I still have about 100 or so, and I reread many. Mostly published 10 years or more ago -- most of the newer ones just don't excite me (and the ones that do, I have).

And while I read about as fast as DSD (I think it was just about 13 hours on the latest HP for me as well, maybe an hour or so more or less), I don't think I'd want to read any faster. I know I miss some details (and go back and re-read 'em) at my speed.

Well, except for textbooks and the like. I read (or really, skim) those considerably faster. Then again, those are not exactly known for nuance and poetic language. wink


Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
