4.0

I don’t know how it happened, but this book went from insanely slow to having me feeling rage in 25 pages. The set up, the deviations, the end?! 

The beginning of this is insanely slow for the book being literally like 100 pages. But then they got on the case and things happened I wasn’t expecting and Sanderson kicked us in the face. I am not satisfied with this ending, but also absolutely am because I didn’t expect to feel things about what I thought was a boring book. I guess I’m just going to go stare at a wall while processing what even happened here. Nobody better bring this book up in front of me, I’m probably going to be feral about it for a while.
