Welcome, greetings, and salutations. (I would have more words here but the thesaurus seems to be broken. You'll have to deal with what comes to mind.)
My only question is how on earth could you resist such an amazing place? Why would you want to not be here? Wait, that's 2 questions. Oh well...
It is massive. I'm not quite sure how they got 1303 pages in paperback without it exploding or something. They're really stretching the binding, the cover sticks up without me having to read it first. When I took it out of the box, I ended up cutting it (due to the cover sticking up). Then there...
When I was ordering the second book, I saw on Amazon that there were split books and one whole book. It was cheaper to get the whole book, but at least now I know why there was split books.
I haven't finished WoK yet (I'm about half way there) but I just wanted to throw this out there. Doesn't it seem like they're underwater? Like mermaids only the water left and they adapted to living on land. And then in some other place, there's grass that stays still and dirt! Stationary trees...
It's the best thing since sliced bread, so to speak. Although, I think that sliced bread was more of a minor invention, but still pretty great. If anything the site is way better than bread. Sorry to waste your time talking about bread, I'm just weird like that.
I am so sorry! I forgot to put the spoiler thing on! Please skip over this if you haven't read the Fires of Heaven! Sorry!
Now you're making me sad! :(

I hope to one day become a Brown Sister (I'm assuming by future you meant that of Tar Valon) because next year I'm planning on going to college to become a Librarian. Et tu, Brute? I guess it wouldn't be Brutus in this context, though....
So far, I love this site. It resembles the books so much, I feel like I need to look up in awe every time I go here. I'm not very good at starting things either. Usually, I end up waiting for people to come to me because I feel like I'm too formal. Anyway, I would love to chat.
Welcome! I'm new as well. I haven't been here long, but this is probably the best place in the entire internet.
Your second book looks rather interesting, I've officially put it on my to-read list. :D
I'd want to live in one of the small villages that surround Tar Valon. I'm not a people person, so I wouldn't have to deal with the throngs of people, and if I needed anything the village couldn't supply, I could got to the city. I'm thinking it'd be one of the closer ones, but not Darein or...
I loved it when Mat gave Joline the pastries (I think that's what they were) that would turn her mouth blue. It was so childish, yet still great. Also when Mat thinks about how the pattern is laughing at him, and the Creator is sitting somewhere giggling his guts out.
The Sea-Folk, Karede, Ituralde, and other random and incredibly boring people. Y'know, the miscellaneous people in prologues (that were probably important). The prologues were always hard to read, maybe because of the length. As many others have said, I am not anticipating Cadsuane, either.
