Some parts were fairly easy to foresee, but the all characters really make this unique.

somehow with these books 1000 pages feels almost not enough. i cannot stop thinking about this world, its lore and, most importantly, its characters. this book series is ruining my social life and i love it. all i want is talk about every minute detail of this story and universe and i'm unreasonably angry at the people around me for not reading these books. I NEED SOMEONE TO TALK ABOUT ALL OF THIS WITH!!! please send help!!!!!

I could have put this book down at a lot of points and really struggled to pick it back up again, so I'm glad I had the time to push through and binge a lot of it. It was a really good way to spend the time...
I think I've started taking Sanderson for granted after reading so much so quickly. I'm starting to have an eye for what he does wrong and am getting a bit desensitized to what he does right.
He's a master of multi POV. It's always interesting, the new perspectives being brought to each chapter.
He's not great at emotional impact. I didn't care when
His world building is awesome. The world feels big and overwhelming in the best possible way. It feels silly but somehow still tangible and real.
I think I've been reading too much romance lately. Fantasy writers largely DON'T ever learn to build and break tension the same way as a person who can make you feel fully immersed and invested in just... whether two people kiss. But man, if someone could bring that energy to the fall of an empire like Sanderson's, it'd be a hell of a book.
I guess my takeaway overall is that you have to read this book because it's truly interesting, not necessarily because it makes you Care.
This was still a hell of a book.
I'll read the next one. It'll be great.
