Umpteenth reread now finished

The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Wind - Fuyumi Ono, 小野 不由美, Akihiro Yamada, 山田 章博, Elye J. Alexander, Alexander O. Smith

This latest reread took a bit longer than usual - according to past reading data, I normally get through this book in a day or two. I'll blame that on work, which is still a torturous, stressful slog, although slightly less so in the past week than it was the week before. I haven't done much reading in the past week, only a few minutes of computer game playing and TV watching here and there. Current shows: Bromance (a Taiwanese romantic comedy series) and Hanna (Amazon's new series based on the 2011 movie of the same title). Current games: Garden Paws and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.

 

I've been doing nearly annual rereads of Sea of Wind for the past 5 years now. I'm willing to admit that the book has flaws, but I love it all the same. Here's hoping Taiki's story eventually gets an ending. And that the ending doesn't rip my heart out and stomp on it.

 

And now I get to do some more Snakes and Ladders rolls. Yay!
