I've super given up hope on Rothfuss releasing book 3, I've literally been waiting since TWMF came out.
I didn't get any books for christmas but I read the Southern Reach trilogy this year by Jeff VanderMeer, Annhilation was fucking amazing, it was an incredible read. Authority and Acceptance were very diffferent in atmosphere and not what I was expecting. Still good but they just weren't the same.
Annhilation, the book, is very different from what I remember the film being, with the book being vastly superior imo.
I also started Lord of the Rings again for the first time since I was a kid, it's going to be hard to not think of the movies the whole time.
