I really loved this book. I even sobbed at one part. Shallan really is becoming the most interesting character and I love that for her.

Love this series so so much!!! This book is probably my third favorite out of the four that have been released. It definitely is an amazing book and has so many great moments that I absolutely love but I think what makes it hard for me to read sometimes is the Dalinar parts. I know so many people love Dalinar and that’s great for them but I honestly can’t stand him and this book is very Dalinar focused. Besides that though I think this is a spectacular book and definitely worth reading!!!!
