This rating honestly feels blasphemous.
The meta developments in this book blew my mind. The crossover are starting for real... and it was fun matching side characters with other series and drawing connections. The Harmony epilogue... intriguing and worrying. I'll definitely keep following along.
That being said... I kinda found myself trudging through this book for the first two thirds. And I found the end less impactful than the end of the first Mistborn trilogy, which was disappointing. I expected tears and mind blowing but it just felt pretty lighthearted. There was never really a point in the plot where I couldn't see the characters succeeding and I feel like that's pretty integral to a Sanderson plot. I'm also not sure we really needed four different povs, balanced the way they were, because we ended up spending little time with anyone in particular and maybe that's why I didn't feel connected to any of the characters as much as I wanted to be.
