It's disappointing to me that this needs to be said. I read the first Song of Ice and Fire book in the middle of 2013, and I finished the fifth book this past March. That's several thousand pages of fiction in less than a year. Clearly, I like the books.

But I can wait for the sixth book. I did fine in 2012 without ASOIAF, and I'll do fine in 2015 and 2016 and even 2017 if it comes to that.

Last year I discovered I prefer novels and assorted nonfiction to reading random articles on the Internet. I prefer to chew on one idea for a long time than a thousand little ideas at once.

So what I'd really like is a way to find other books to read that I enjoy as much a Martin's work. I've signed up for GoodReads, but nothing has come of it just yet.

Does anyone have any suggestions other than browsing Amazon or strolling through a Barnes and Noble?
