How long did you wait? Did you go to any of the first nite release events?

Good Grief! What happened to Fred? How could you possibly read a 600-page book in 6 hours? I can't even read a 300-page book in 6 hours.

Fred had chest pains. It turned out to be pleurisy, but we were concerned that it was something worse. It was very scary, and we had katie with us which was a challenge because she was scared too,
I read quickly and had no interruptions or distractions...that's how.
I'm on a slower second reading now.

Pleursiy is a virus that expands the tissue in the lungs and around the heart, making it hard to breathe.
He is much better, thank you.

Well, it wasn't what I was expecting. If anyone read the spoilers that came out the night before...unfortunately, they were spot on.
I think there were too many drudge details and they didn't give much air time to characters who I would have liked to see get a bit more developed.
Sadly, I was right on a couple of the deaths, and those scenes were tear-jerkers.
more later..

I haven't read any spoilers. If it's the last book, would there be much point in developing minor characters? There's more than one death?
