Wow!

So, it has been a long, long while since I have used Goodreads, but I am reintegrating back into the site. As I logged on I realized I somehow linked my Goodreads with my 9 year old son's Kindle a very long time ago and many of you have likely observed a ton of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" updates from my account, lol. I deleted them, and hope it hasn't been a downer. Stay with me folks. I'm coming back!

This is good. Thanks to the Fantasy-Faction - Fantasy Book Discussion Facebook group for putting this on my radar!

NEED YOUR HELP!! I'm in desperate need of an amazing read. Something that just knocks your socks off. Been a long time since I've experienced such a book. For example novels like Blood Song, The Way of Kings, The Shadow of What Was Lost, The Name of the Wind, meet that knock your lights out criteria.

Took a long hiatus, but recently returned a favorite passion of mine: reading. I've been looking through various best of fantasy lists primarily dating back to 2016. One of the list had this book and I thought to give it a try. Great decision as the book is fantastic so far. Enjoying it immensely.

Personal life has gravely impacted my reading in the last year. Too many things going on. Just picked up a few quick reads in the last month. Nothing spectacular just trying to find my footing again.

NEED YOUR HELP! Please recommend something earth shattering that has come out in the last 12 months. Need a really amazing book. Thanks!

"The Last Time We March", Chapter 37 of Oathbringer, has to be one of my favorite chapters of all three Stormlight Archive books. Love that Rock is receiving more page time and I sense some big things to come for his character.

On another note, Sanderson is a genius and likely the greatest author of my generation. IMHO, there's not another who comes close.

So it begins. Despite the preorder of the hardcover, ebook, and audiobook, I'm only now able to start this read. Super excited! This is going to be great!
