But hey, at least it's a couple of months instead of years.... like how I have been feeling with the third book of the Kingkiller Chronicles. Or the entire series in general.
No kidding. Though I have yet to catch up with A Song of Ice and Fire, I have some of his books still in their plastic cover they came with because I have yet to open them. I was busy, and then I got... ehem, obsessed with a couple of other series as well.
I wish mine could be that merciful. It's in moments like this that I appreciate most of them live reaaaally far away, as in, in another country far away, that way I avoid whatever 'speeches' they might give me.

People like that make me grateful this is the only social.media site I regularly use
I use Facebook mostly for messaging, but the amount of notifications I was getting were getting really high pretty fast, so I took a look. I use this one and tumblr, but there I mostly get anime stuff (and a lot of Sherlock and Supernatural)

I don't trust my sanity to withstand tumblr xD So I've been staying far away from it except for posts my friend and girlfriend send me links to
I feel the same way about games. It's so bad that when I'm almost done, I start over with a different character without finishing it. Lot of RPG, which has a lot of reading... So that's kind of a book.
I just finished one that came out yesterday and the next one in the series doesn't come for another YEAR. Thankfully theres another series thats this one is an off shoot of and a third seperate series by the same author. Still, next new book doesn't come out until late June.
Me and my dad are both avid readers that like to keep up with book series and anytime I complain about this he always tells me "I don't wanna hear it. I waited over 10 years for my favorite series to be completed."
Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson. Part of what took so long to finish the series was Robert Jordan passed away before the last few books could be published but had basically left behind plans about how he wanted go end the series. So Brandon Sanderson stepped in and finished it for him. There's like 14 books I think and they're all huge.
The Trials of Apollo: The Hidden Oracle. And I would most def recommend it but only if you've read Rick Riordan's other books as well. It was beautiful and everything I hoped it would be and so much more.
I would recommend Akame ga kill because the action is very much on point and I like the fact that every character has a backstory (even the side characters). I do have criticisms, the anime and the manga are fast paced so it's hard to warm up to dorm characters, the anime doesn't even go into the backstory of the MAIN characters backstory (his supposed best friends are there for like an episode) and his original motives to come to the big city were completely forgotten.
But I still think you should watch it, it's a good time pass anime.
Soul eater on the other hand is a very good anime and it's worth watching but it's quite child like. The concept is brilliant and there is a lot of humour as well as serious down-to-business action and I love the struggle of soul's (one of the main characters) internal struggle. I like the originality, the humour, the action and the characters are very lovable.
Also, if you enjoyed Blue exorcist, I recommend 'Tokyo Ravens'- a very underrated series but amazing non the less. However, the anime feels incomplete and I feel that it certainly deserves a second season. (I still need to read the manga)
Have you watched Kyoukai no kanata? That's pretty good. So is blue exorcist :P
