The Obelisk Gate is another incredible, gorgeous masterpiece from NK Jemisin that has once again left me a babbling mess connecting red string on a cork board. 

everyone told me that Obelisk Gate was better than Fifth Season, and I didn’t believe them, because how could you possibly improve on perfection? and yet, here I am, yelling at the sky, trying to process that ending and all of its implications and possible consequences. 

As much as I want to immediately dive into Stone Sky and embrace what I’m sure will be an epic conclusion, I need to take the time and decompress from this brilliance. NK Jemisin has done it again, and I will forever recommend her books to anyone who will listen
