I took a bit of a break but that was mostly because I was stuck on a really boring Star Wars book. Since I was a fan of most of the movies I thought I would really dig that but sheesh it was so boring and I don't really want the image of Han and Lea having a wonderful relationship with kids (one of them is named Anakin as in Darth Vader Anakin) and how they run around with Luke keeping the universe safe. It was dumb but like you I am no quitter I just kept putting it off until I finally finished it 3 weeks later or something.
I will never read another Star Wars book again is the lesson I learned. I'm on a really good one right now called "Deluge" and I can't yet really tell you what it is about but the author is outstanding.
