would never dream of spoiling this experience for anyone, but GOD some of the surprises in this one were delectably devious. Literal gasps when I reached certain parts.
While the plot is pretty strong and engaging, I feel like a lot of the character work fell to side a bit :/ aside from our main characters.
Still an elend hater, but less so now I will admit lmaoo. Vin can never do wrong in my eyes that is my daughter and I support her in all things 😤😤😤
Would have to say my biggest gripe with this series is the lack of women (vin CANNOT be the only one carrying this series on her back pls give her a friend or a mother figure of a girlfriend PLEASE 😩) but ahhh male-written fantasy what can ya do 😐

This book is a really good example of how good reveals and plot twists hit when they’re delivered effectively. It doesn’t feel like anything comes out of nowhere, and the result leaves the reader feeling surprised but satisfied. Also, really fantastic characters. They all feel very deep and real. It’s a pretty gloomy book, though. Leaves off on hella sad vibes; I don’t expect that to change given the series track record. This makes me feel apprehensive about the final installment.

Now I understand. Now I understand why people always describe this series as ''the chosen one trope but with a twist''. I GET IT.
Anyways, Brandon Sanderson, you are a genius. I love your writing.
