sorry for abusing this app. new void to scream into just unlocked :) still my go to read atm but but but I will say I've felt a dip in the writing quality since the halfway mark. Not sure what happened but suddenly it's feeling more like "telling" about the world than showing it. Kind of like listing things off, but maybe that's bound to happen in the arena vs the lead up idk

idk what she puts in these books to make them so addicting but dang. all I wanna do is read this book

"The road must be trod, but it will be very hard, and neither strength nor wisdom will carry us far upon it. This quest may be attempted by the weak with as much hope as the strong.

Yet such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere..."

SO much better than the Hobbit so far, I'm very invested.
