Something you couldn't help but overhear then?

Let me guess, a spoiler? Maybe I'll have to try them for myself and see what I think.

I might? I'm not really sure what you like. I read a few of the Circuit of Continuance books, they weren't so bad. I'm not sure if they're uncommon, but the Wheel of Alchemy series was pretty good and I really loved some of the other series by that same author like Guardian of the Tiny and Anthem of the Tigress.

Something like that. And yes, once I started getting spoilers I just lost the desire to keep reading.

Mostly I play music, but I gotta do stuff that's quiet sometimes. Also I've been told reading will help my English grades improve. Pretty much anything fantasy that won't get spoiled. I'll try it.

Just... don't talk about the plot twists out loud at school, okay? My luck on this is really bad.

I guess knowing how things end would take some of the fun out of reading.

Well in that case, see if you can find Wyvern Blade and Air Daughter! I.... lost my copy and tried to replace it a few weeks ago, but apparently none of the local stores have it in stock. So it might not be the easiest to find, sounds like just the book for you, don't you think?

I'll make sure not to say anything, so don't worry about it. My lips are zipped.

[Naturally she even makes a zipping sound.]

Mmm?

[That's the zipped equivalent of See, honest!]

Not even just how it ends the 'Oh isn't it so great when he stands up to what's his face' or 'that time she slapped that jerk, priceless.' Every fun little bit clipped and handed to me outta context.

Thanks, I'll see if I can find a copy, if I can't maybe my sister can mail me one. She might have better luck. It definitely sounds like a plan if its a book nobody can find.

I guess that'd really drain the fun out of things after a while.

If I ever find my old copy I'll let you know. Maybe see if I can come up with a few more books that I think aren't that common while I'm at it.
