Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson
4.5
adventurous challenging dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

For a book with Shallan on the cover, there was hardly any of her in this book. But Wit and Jasna were stellar in their small parts. Adolin and Maya as well. The plot did feel slow and disjointed with characters acting a bit out of character at times but it was a very good look at mental illness in multiple forms. Cried the most reading this one. “We chose” “You cannot have our sacrifice!” “You will be warm again”.
