The pandemic had all sorts of effects. I doubled my reading in 2020, with for instance two of George R. R. Martin's thick novels in the Game of Thrones series. During the work from home years I got an incredible boost in cardio fitness because I did a lot of running. #bookstodon
@wilander how does it feel now knowing the ending will never be written?
@rpaulo I haven't seen such a claim, but it's been feared for a long time. Martin is 77 and he's said there are at least two books left and I only think it's reasonable to expect one more to be published. Partly that situation and partly the story itself made me not finish A Dance with Dragons. I've looked back a few times but it's not wearing on me. There are so many great books to read! Right now I'm excited about Death of a Red Heroine by Qiu Xiaolong and the works of Pat Cadigan.
