Not About Hewlett-Packard

So, despite what I may have told some people, I ended up in a car for eight hours with The Book That Came Out This Saturday That Everyone Is Reading, and so I read it.

I was mildly disappointed. Anticlimactic, I felt.

Ah, well. Patrick Rothfuss is due for a sequel to his debut novel any time now; I find Kvothe a far more interesting superpowerful wizarding student than Mr. Potter.

This weekend it seemed as though half the city had their noses buried in that book. I was surprised that so many people were schlepping such a big hardcover edition aroudn, but saw far more copies of the book on the subway than the Post or even the Daily News.

It just happened to be in a car I was riding in. Otherwise, I would have waited until next week to get it, when the fuss died down.
