The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson
4.0

Book 26 of 2021! The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson

Book 26!!! This means I have completed my goal of reading 26 books before I turn 26 in July! Whoop Whoop! Go me! Of course, I'll be creating a new goal now.

Anyway back to the actual book, The Final Empire! I enjoyed it but I don't think this lives up to the hype. It's a great book, I'm not saying it's not. I just felt like there was a lot of talking about doing something and not actually doing it.

I didn't instantly like the characters either, which I think is a biggie. I got more attached to them towards the very end of the book. The twists and turns were great. The inquisitors seemed unnaturally spiteful and out to cause pain, which I didn't understand.

I'd like to know more about Vin's powers, I also enjoyed her character development. The main female characters in Sanderson's books aren't written for you to love them instantly. Vin goes from street urchin to Assasin! There's never really a love triangle either, so it's not predictable and that makes it enjoyable.

Sazed, my favourite character in this book <3
Excited to read book no.2!
