Loved this story. I enjoyed the mentor/pupil bond that boarder on family bonds.
The ease of the characters' ability to pivot the plan to overthrow the high lord was great.
And it had the coziest little romance ever between Vin and Elend.
Cant wait to get my hands on the next book lol.

I appreciate the creativity Brandon Sanderson poured into this world. The concept of this story is beyond cool. The FMC is fierce, hardcore, bold, and powerful. The supporting characters are equally lovable. Sanderson outdid himself with character depth and development of not only MCs but supporting characters as well.

Sanderson has a great way of building a world and characters. In the beginning I was really interested in Kelsier and follow him through the story. Vin is another main character that at first I didn't feel like I really got interested in her at all. Some things about her felt more of a tell you about her then show you about her. That got better as the book progressed. There were times when I found her a bit annoying, but I did start to like her and get interested in her as well. Sazed was pretty interesting and I kept wanting to know more about what it is that he can actually do. The Lord Ruler well how are they going to take care of that guy?
Overall a very good read. Great characters and great world. This is the second Sanderson book I have read and I think he really likes the idea of rebellions and sections of rebellion not knowing about the other sections in case they are tortured. I'm interested to see where else this story goes. It didn't feel like there was very much left open at the end of this book to continue on with.

Good world building, but tbh I have a low tolerance of violence and it was too much violence for me.
