Man, I almost didn’t make it through this one - the second quarter of the book really dragged for me. But halfway through? Once the story finished setting up, it never stopped and only kept ramping up. Why are these books so LONG?! Frustratingly amazing read.
ETA: The longer I sit with this book, the more I love and appreciate everything about it. This may actually be one of my favorite books. 5 Stars ⭐️

Even better the second time around! Kaladin and Adolin my be my favorites, but Shallan was the MVP this time. She's so much more interesting on a second run through. This book is my favorite.

The trio coming together, The Duel, I Am A Stick, Renarin training with his plate, meeting Zahael... But what was Jasnah doing the whole time in Shadesmar? When did Zahael get here and where did he lose Nightblood? How did Nin/Nale get Nightblood?

IT'S ALL SO GOOD.
