I love fantasy (epic, urban, military, all of it really), romance, comedy, and the occasional bit of spookery. Raised on Mercedes Lackey, Robert Jordan, and butterfly hair clips. 🤷‍♀️

  • Suggestion

    A small but very helpful suggestion would be to add a ‘remember me’ to the website sign in so that we don’t have to sign in each time we go on the website.

    I 100% thought this was just a sequel but so far every character is new?!?! As a true SFF nerd, I will of course keep reading until it makes sense. 🫡

    It's so good to be back in Emond's Field with the gang. This is my first time w/the audiobook and I do so adore Kramer's narration. (It's an easy transition after my Mistborn re-read via Kramer's audio, too.)

  • Rhythm of war to be read last?

    Rhythm of war is the fourth book in the stormlight archive, what's the reason for it being last in the reading order?

    This text from Makoto has my blood boiling...idk if sexism and thin culture are really that much more prevalent in Japan than the US or if Japanese people are just more openly discussing it or if it's just the portrayal in this book (though I recall similar scenes in Haruki Murakami's books)?

    Reading Update from 48% (page 303)

    I've been reading this for DAYS. I think I'm just burned out (ew, work), but it's taking me so long to read this even though the quality is as fantastic as the first two books??? Idk... I'm struggling.
