It's a trilogy in 7 books. The author intended 3 when he started but the story got bigger than he intended and he has to do 7 now. The 5th one will be released on June 12.

I'm reading the 4th one right now.

Warning: Those books will suck all your time without you noticing.

I'm enjoying the TV series, but I bought the book and it isn't doing a good job of getting my attention. I'll persist with it, but its not got off to a good start.

What's displeasing you in the book so far?

It just isn't making me want to read it. I was told it was a page turned, but quite frankly I'm just happy once its time to wipe.

It isn't from the start. There's a large cast and when you start reading the book, you don't know them yet, don't care about them yet and the stakes aren't high yet.

Continue reading.

I might, but there's plenty of other books out there to read.

I know what you mean Stuart, I hate it when o start to read something and I'm not in to it. There are so many thing out there that I want to read, but when I have started something I have a need to finish it.

Just started the girl with the dragon tattoo.

Just finished C.S.Lewis' autobiography.

I am currently (still) reading through all the Terry Pratchett Discworld series - along with a spattering of other books along the way.

For books, I finished Lost at Sea and Ghost Trick (I count the latter as half book, half game) recently when, er, I wasn't at work. Obviously. I'm not sure what I'm going to read next, as I'm torn between rereading A Song of Ice and Fire and starting some Gaiman books my partner has.

Not including books, I'm basically perpetually reading Wikipedia and news discussion :L
