Poor fundamentals! Curry will never make it anywhere with this playing style.

It takes a special kind of asshole to target dogs.
That is, in fact, still too long. #neversatisfied #giveittomeNOWWWWW
I keep thinking “no-vag”
Er, heresy, I know.
I’m going to say it: Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files....I think he’s even tired of it, and has started his new series (which was refreshing).
TOO MUCH AMBER!
Anita Blake. I really liked the first few; I think this was one of the first supernatural noir PI setups in what has become a super crowded field. And I liked that her power was old-school zombie raising, rather than something fluffy. And then, I really don’t know WTF happened after book 3 or 4.
Riverworld. Philip Jose Farmer. Just. Too Long. ‘Way more than ‘a smidge.’ Too much Mark Twain. Did. Not. Finish.
Dune, Dune, Dune.... By the time Leto atreides was rolling around as a fat sandworm with little t-rex arms I was done.
For me, it’s Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles. There was a lot to love in those first novels and even as it lingered it had bursts of interesting developments. And then it got so, so, so bad, both due IMO to inadequate editing and just terrible vision. I made it to Blackwood Farm before my rage forced me to say…
Xanth series by Piers Anthony - I loved them and then... I didn’t. Don’t know if I grew out of them or if the puns just got tiresome.
The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind. I loved it, but holy crap that’s a lot of words.
I’ll be that guy: A Song of Ice and Fire book series is going on way too long. GRRM keeps introducing new POV characters, when what worked about the first novel was that there were only a few. I like the world he’s constructed, but the story needs to sum up soon and get to where its going or I’m going to have to give…
“Wheel of Time” by Robert Jordan/Brandon Sanderson. The series probably needed to be about 6 books shorter. There were whole books- long books- where it felt like NOTHING happened.
