So many mysteries, so much angst, no easy solutions, but also some truly epic moments. Did not disappoint.

I can't believe I was lucky enough to forget half the twists in the ending before rereading this one. What a great book. It's a slow burn, and there's a lot of different threads, but I'll be damned if I wasn't invested in the characters.

Kaladin’s struggle against depression is handled so wonderfully, it was really inspiring to see him deal with it.

Listening to it definitely didn't make Venli's chapters drag as much as reading them did.
