Okay so is this ever going to be addressed or was this literally just to fill a plot hole by shoving a piece of paper over it and hoping nobody noticed?!

What do you mean that in less than 50 lines (600 pages in or whatever) Wirr met someone, decided to sign away some land, got 10,000 groups from a country mentioned only once in three books and characters that were 100% forgotten and used only as plot points to give him an army??? This is the most ridiculous writing and plot I’ve ever read it makes no sense and is totally ludicrous…but I’ll keep reading I guess

Nope. It ends here. It doesn’t go on. This is where Fitzs story ends. His daughter is happy. The fool lives. Fitz does not harm his beloved. Bee is not captured. Shun is not tortured. Beloved does not die. Fitz does not pass into the wolf. Revel does not die. Riddle does not pass. They are all happy. They are all happy if I just do not pick the book back up again.

How can an author be so good at writing but so awful at writing romance?! Holy hell what is this

I feel like all I do is read this book and I make no progress with it. It’s never ending. I love it

Teft is so lovely

“You going to yield?” Kaladin growled. “Or do I get to kill my second shardbarer?”
FUCK this may be one of the best scenes I’ve ever read

I forget how easy brandosanders is to read (especially after Robin hobb….)

Already making me rethink my relationship with grief and with Ghibli…

I’ve also not seen the grave of the fireflies and so imma watch that before I continue the book 😌

It’s all down hill from here folks

Why does Hobb feel the need to constantly reiterate the point that Fitz and the Fool are ‘friends’? Fitz is an unreliable narrator and is pretending that him and the Fool aren’t lovers. I get it. History will call them close friends. I get it. Stop drilling it into me and making me disappointed Hobb

Rape/sexual assault in front of a child

No words just grief

Suicide reference

I know I’m supposed to be sad about molly but…. The fool???? WHERE ARE THEY?! And I like Bee but I’m confused. Is she prophetic? Is she so unimaginably open to the skill?? Bamboozled

Life’s too short to read books you don’t like

I lost it at the ice cream. I have low standards and that a step too far for me🫠

“His religion is buried in the silence of freshly fallen snow, in a carefully crafted cocktail, in between the pages of a book somewhere after the beginning but before the ending.”

“Everyone is part of a story, what they want is to be part of something worth recording. It’s that fear of mortality, ‘I was here and I mattered’ mind-set”

“Two black dots mar the pale blue of the cloudless sky, the crows that took flight moments ago in the process of disappearing into the distance”

Struggling to slog through this book…

Actually yuck

Reg’s friendship w Kreacher is one of my fave things. Along with Dumbledore bashing

Modus sat there chatting calmly about putting reg up for trail, ignoring the fact that he too is a murderer. Is the order going to go on trial?!
