I absolutely loved this book. 

The world has been ruled by a ruler who by all definitions is pretty terrible. The main character are trying to overthrow him to have a better world. I've heard a lot of hype about  Brandon Sanderson, so I admit that I went in with high expectations, and this delivered. 

The writing was simple and easy to follow, which I really enjoy. The world-building was amazing, and I found the pacing worked really well. The prologue itself was a great read and really set the bar for the rest of the book. The twists and turns through this also kept me engaged. 

I loved the characters, especially Vin. The character development she went through was pretty great. She also was what I consider a bad ass character, but at the same time, she had weaknesses that made her seem more real. 

I am really excited to read the next ones, and more of Brandon Sanderson's work.
