I'm honestly not even sure where to start. This was a solid 5/5 read for me and my first ever Brandon Sanderson novel (woohoo!)
I found it really easy to get used to Sanderson's prose, it felt perfectly descriptive enough while not sounding too technical. Even though it is always daunting to get into a new fantasy series, especially one with a universe as complex as the Cosmere.
The characters had me hooked really easily, and the entire time i was reading I found myself genuinely caring about their well-being and their goals.
The highlight of this book for me was closer to the ending, with theBattle of the tower. Brandon Sanderson really excels with writing tense and emotional battle scenes. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and forced myself to finish it within one setting.
