I’m SO sad I didn’t enjoy this as much as I was hoping I would. I really liked Shellan and Kaladin’s parts. Especially towards the end. Dalinar’s was harder for me to get through. 

I’m realizing I don’t really like stories centered around war. Mistborn felt different bc it wasn’t strictly fighting. And I felt like the fighting in it was more interesting. 

I’ll keep reading the series, but I am slightly disappointed. :(
