This is wild - so if you just overthrew the ruler of a government, you need to kill/exile a good chunk of your helpers; unless you’re absolutely sure they’re 100% loyal to you, you know they’re willing to rise up against the current leader & you gotta keep them happy (with much $$$) or it’s only a matter of time before they come for you! 😅

Okay, yeah, it’s even better than I remember 🤯

I read this for the first time when I was in 7th grade, which was probably too early considering the mention of abuse and adult themes, but it profoundly changed the way I thought about books, especially in the horror genre.

Uuuugh - it's so hard to talk about this story without giving anything away!

KH nails the shear brutality of war and the pain that lingers with the survivors after living through seemingly endless atrocities; Reminds me strongly of Elie Wiesel, just a masterclass of storytelling.

It's actually happening, Stormlight Archive is getting adapted for TV! Apple plz don't screw this up

Reading this book has been a surreal experience, I feel like I need a couple rereads just to make sure I’m correctly understanding everything that went down over the last 200 pages

...almost...there...😭

I'm not gonna dnf, but it's 100% a grind at this point.

This is a breath of fresh air after Katabasis!

I’m wondering if my expectations were just too high for this book based on what I’ve heard. Story is fine so far but nothing super special…

“She had hiked Yosemite and the Appalachian Trail without help. This is what convinced her she could make the trip. She’d done the White Mountains. How much worse could Hell be?”

😂 I love it
