I don’t get it but i like it?

Struggling to care about the saga storyline!

I never realized how cleared inspired signe is by cersei Lannister respect lowkey

Oh??? I twist even I did not predict? Perfectly timed with the end of my break at work to not give me closure + a flight tomorrow to give me nothing else to do is the perfect storm to push me thru to the end of this book cuz trust I’m losing steam, but I want to get to my other Libby book now lmao

I just don’t find the romance believeable? Like I guess the point is it’s always there but they literally never even talk. Also I STILL DONT BELIEVE IN GENDER HOPPING EVEN in a technically “new life and body reincarnation” situation

Dont like nonbinary vibes even if she’s a she and he’s a he in the main life GENDER IS INNATE TO THE SOUL SORRY THATS THE TRUTH AS I BELIEVE IT!

Ok isla is a predator idk how old she is but she’s a predator I don’t care if they’re all adults now

This book slaps idk why it took me so long to actually start

“The fundamental flaw of science is believing that matter created life, when in truth, it is life that is the origin of matter, it is life-the source, the soul, that is the creator of material existence”
Idk if this is a real quote or just a fake quote by the author but either way I like it

Okay I just still do not understand logistically how this whole dystopian government situation is functioning or “impossible to overthrow” if LITERALLY EVERYONE IS A REBEL OR AFFILIATED!!! Pres’s entire fam? Rebels. His right hand man? Rebel. Entire economy? Rebel. Literally just kill the main president man and boom done it’s literally not that complicated and therefore after this book I’m not continuing

I’m considering a DNF but I want that reading goal 😪

This whole thing is making much more sense the second time thru-I think the first I comprehended maybe 4% of what was actually going on whoopsies

It’s giving Jonah and the whale
also I forgot how annoying the terminology of this book is. SAY NIGHT NOT SLUMBER OKAY

I’m just having a hard time computing the necessity/origin of this “society” and also if everyone legit every single individual hates the prez why can’t they just kill him and be done with it? The successor allegedly is one of the good guys (mmc). The whole book lacks the definitive why for me

It’s giving “soul wracked with the reality of eternal torment”
Also the murder combined with him just getting rid of the stuff he stole which was the whole point of the murder wow

Really embodies the principle of that which you dwell on you become, and you can convince yourself to do anything.
I’m having a hard time reading this just because the main character is one of the worst, most victim yet pretentious people ever, I hate his attitude and outlook and reading his inner monologue is genuinely painful to me BUT I think that’s bc it’s the part of ourselves we never want to aknowledge

Drunk guy who has completely failed his family’s complete lack of self worth and understanding and just acceptance of the way he’s life to be is so distinctly pathetic I can’t even put words to it

DNF

So far this is Brandon’s biggest disappointment. I hate kalodins therapy journey

world building not convincing. Hypothetically I don’t comprehend how this regime has the power it claims if MMCs dad started it max 30 years ago? don’t add up. The mask bit doesn’t add anything to the story because the dystopia isn’t actually explained
It talks a lot about the division of gov but no actual explanation on how it works? Lots of reviews like omg just like today, to that I say bitch where

-prediction the brother is alive and working for rebels and the dad knows
-I don’t get why they don’t just kill psycho dad there are many opportunities, he sucks and MMC would probably be a natural next step in leadership and could fix the system but hey I’m just a girl with a third party perspective
-is the word antiseptic an adjective?
-the back tattoo sounds like the tackiest thing on earth

Well I’m not super into the hella bloodthirsty murderous FMC classic at the moment, but I am excited about this one the writing is decent and I assume girlie is going to have an *evolution*

Brandon Sanderson does not understand how 5 year olds thing and it show

Despite the amount of characters and that confusion I still guessed the killer THE WHOLE FREAKING TIME do authors think they’re slick??? I’m so sick of this bs SURPRISE ME EVEN ONCE I BEG

Too! Many!! Characters!!!

Too many characters that I struggle to keep track of and too many ethnic names but otherwise good so far

10 hours in and it’s still in set up phase hoooly cow and also everyone be getting laid I don’t want to think about Brandon thinking about sex
