The Emperor's Soul: 4 stars. Very intriguing.
The Hope of Elantris: 4.75 stars. Elantris was probably my favourite of Sandersons books I've read so far.
The Eleventh Metal: 4.5 stars. Neat!
Allomancer Jak: 3.75 stars. Humorous but I just wasn't that into it I guess.
Secret History: 5 stars. Kelsier rules.
White Sand: 3.5 stars. This probably would have worked better for me if it wasn't an audiobook?
Shadows for Silence...: 4.25 stars. This one was neat. I liked it.
Sixth of the Dusk: 4.5 stars. Always a fan of animal bases magics.
Edgedancer: 5 stars. Lift is my favourite.
