The little stuffed bull in me misses the starfish, but the grownup blogger in me enjoys the recommended/not recommended mildly/not clarifications immensely. I'm also in extreme greeny jealousy about how swiftly you caught up. I keep falling behind...

If I wrote proper reviews, I'd never catch up. As it was, I had a very hard time getting caught up until I decided one day to just sit down and reread the books until I couldn't stand it anymore. I caught up before I reached that point.

I like your shorter reviews. Very to-the-point about things! And hey, you're mostly caught up now.
