Re Read of the Eye of The World?

[JenniferL]

I've seen some interest in this. If I create a board, JUST for a spoiler free discussion of the first book, would you participate? And furthermore, would you moderate it for me?

[Maglin josVinn]

i re-read the series with every new book.  guess... well,  one more re-read.

 

i've posted twice in 2 years.  this is the second post.  i'm not volunteering.  *wink*

[JenniferL]

But you'll participate? *bats her eyes*

[SqueeEGA]

I'll participate.  Its one of my favorites. 

[Alys Kinch]

i would love to, but everytime i turn around someone has loaned out eye of the owrld.

[loki redfern]

a re-read with out spoilers? wouldnt that be a bit redundant, or did i just understand that wrong

 

and i was kinda i little way into reading it again so i would probably have a look see

[JenniferL]

It would be a discussion of the first book only, without discussion of the later books.

 

Or would that be too hard? Should we allow spoilers?

[son of battles]

I don't think it'd be hard.. I think it'd be fun.

 

I'm in the middle of book 7 on a re-read now.. if I started again, I might go insane though.. I've been taking my sweet time and am working towards KoD (no, I still haven't read it)

 

I'll join in a discussion though, I remember this one quite well, though the little details are becoming a bit hazy maybe.

*chuckles*  when i'm not on WoW i'm always looking for something to do online.  all i have to do is find my copy.

[Majsju]

I find it a great idea. In a sense, especially for us oldbies here, who have readd and reread the entire series +10 times or so. Discussing the very first book, without being allowed to spoilerize things would be quite a challenge.

 

Of course, this means I have to get out and buy the bloody book. Again, gave away my copy to a girl i thought would get addicted to the books as quickly as I got 8which she also got)

[ironcross]

i feel your pain maj.  i have personaly given away like 8 copies of EOTW.  well not relly gave them away, more like hey heres a great book you need to read it, then they never give it back

[son of battles]

That's how I got my copy.. though I was told I could keep it.  :P

[Loreina]

I have neither the time nor the skills to mod it Mother, but I'd participate.  :)

I asked for a hardcopy EotW for my birthday, which is in less than three weeks. I so excited! I hope they can find one.  ;D

[Taya]

I will be in this! I've been wanting to re-read the series (including book one even! *gasp*) for many years now, and have never managed. :P Yeah that's right, I haven't read book 11 and I have only red the rest of them once!

[Guest nephitess]

What would modding entail mother? I'd be willing but i would like to know more.

[Minuet]

I am on my first reading of the series, on Knife of Dreams at the moment. As soon as I finish I would love to do a re-read.

Nephi, you want to co-mod it together?

Oh, I would have to get my book back from my sister too. She is working her way through it. She isn't as impressed as I was. Jade and I got her to at least try.

[JenniferL]

What I'd like to do is have a structured re read, where we agree to read a certain number of chapters (like 3 or 4) every couple weeks. Whatever people can handle. Then we talk about those chapters in a thread started by the moderator. I'd sort of like this to be a newbie friendly, "for dummies" reading, so we can have lots of participation. So I'd need a mod who can post the new chapter threads and keep them on topic. They'd also need to be quick about removing accidental spoilers.

[Guest nephitess]

OK sounds good to me! And Min i'd love to do it with you....

 

pstttt....Mother....is there point for this...*puppy eyes*

[Minuet]

I think with two of us we would be twice as fast at catching spoilers. *cheesy grin*

 

I love the idea of it being newbie friendly! It will take me a few weeks to finish KoD. So, I understand if you don't want to use me Mother.

[Guest nephitess]

*grabs hold of MIN*  NOOOOOOOOO, your stuck now ;)

[Minuet]

I was just saying I understand if she says no. It is her choice.

[Guest nephitess]

LOL...just playing with you ;)

[Besolyn]

I’ll participate. This looks like a fun challenge. I’ve reread all of them so many times they’ve all run together into one story for me. It’ll be kinda fun to see Rand as he was.

[Guest nephitess]

So mumzie....let us know when you want us to start....it would be good for me in about a week. :D

[JenniferL]

Alright, I think we can launch this over the weekend.

 

And yes, I can give Raising points for WT Org aspirants. We'll see if we can get some other Orgs to do so as well.
