This protagonist is a bigger idiot than Fitz. Dumbass.

Still objectively bad but I am figuring out why it has the cult following. And I don't even want to consider how much fanfic there probably is.

This is like....objectively not a good book. And yet I can't bring myself to put it down?

Listen, it's bad enough that the man's a genocidal maniac. But the way he talks to his kid? I hope this man dies a fiery fictional death

I also love being in Philip's psychotic little head. Genuinely don't know if I want to see him get his shit together and realize his dad is insane, or see him devolve further into his own craziness. Honestly, it's a win/win

I'm guessing it's probably polarizing and not everyone would agree, but as an Oathbringer girlie, I am loving the switch-up from 4 main POVs to approximately 200

I think my favorite thing about a long series like this is that you really get to *know* the characters in a way you just can't with a stand alone, or even a trilogy. You spend some 100-200 hours with the same people and they start to feel real. So when you crack open a new volume it feels like the familiarity of coming home.

....or maybe I'm just crazy. Either way.

Utterly bizarre choice to have the male narrator read for Peter's lines for one chapter, where for the entire rest of the book he didn't???

Well, gotta give the book credit. It hit the ground running. No dilly dallying around with rising action or background. End of Chapter 1 and we're already in hell

Man there is so much plot happening. Hell yeah. Don't get me wrong, vibe books have their place. But give me the big beefy interconnected multi-POV mess.

"...I'll bring the guy most likely to get in a bar fight."

FUN FACT when I was asking for recommendations, which eventually resulted in a ton of people saying The Expanse, one of the things I asked for was "found family where the question isn't will they get in a bar fight, but when."

The real reason Avasarala isn't in this book is that she'd solve the entire conflict in 5 minutes and then we wouldn't have a plot

You know. I see now why this was recommended to me. Sometimes you read a book and you're just like....oh yes this has all the things I like in my fiction. Delightful. Please, give me more of this content.
