I Read What?!

So I'm trying something new here.

Basically, inspired by some comments, I actually decided to sit down and read Skies of Pern. I'm about halfway through (I have to take a break to stream), but I intend to finish it by tonight.

Since it is nowhere near the next book in the lineup, but I'm really open to chatting about it, I thought I'd open this post.

Here's my controversial opinion that might alienate a lot of Pern fans:

So far, I am really enjoying this book. I would go so far as to say I am enjoying this book more than I've enjoyed pretty much any other Pern book that I've read as an adult.

Anyway, I get the impression that this might be an unpopular opinion. :-D That's okay! If you'd like, please feel free to hop in the comments to chat about it. Don't worry about spoilers. I won't look at the comment section myself until I finish the book, probably tonight! (I'm a fast reader!)

Edited: Finished! And full of opinions (which I am putting in the replies)!

Beware of Spoilers!
