I loved this book. Some POVs felt a bit boring until it got to the end, but one POV in particular has me speeding through it. That one POV was 5 stars for me, because it made me feel so many things. I'd give it 4.5 overall. I got through it way faster than I thought I would.

I just immediately want to read the rest of the series. The world and characters really sucked me in from the very beginning, even if I was a little confused and overwhelmed. I love Kaladin...... that's it.
