Arc is finished with Twilight Territory

emotionally appropriate ending

Arc is 54% done with Twilight Territory

I'm enjoying the prose so far. Book skips a lot in time and over conflicts I would have liked to see more in detail. The next part is called "Tragedy" and I am scared.

Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants

Arc is 15% done with The Great Hunt (The Wheel of Time, #2)

Wondering if I slog through the next 8 books the Sanderson part will be worth it.

I’m in love. Babel is pure beauty.

Arc is 50% done with Sense and Sensibility

I want to give up. This is the most boring book I have ever read.

Arc is 14% done with Sense and Sensibility

“Mrs. Jennings, Lady Middleton’s mother, was a good-humoured, merry, fat, elderly woman, who talked a great deal, seemed very happy, and rather vulgar.” - I love her already.

I feel like I'm finally getting the hang of this writing style.

Arc is on page 138 of 541 of Mistborn: The Final Empire (Mistborn, #1)

Reread. Breeze feels so much for like a flamboyant drama queen this time round, and I’m loving it.

Mistborn: The Final Empire (Mistborn, #1)

Arc is finished with These Twisted Bonds (These Hollow Vows, #2)

This book... wasn't bad, per se. It was just incredibly random. Random characters. Random plot points. Random McGuffins popping out all over the place in some kind of convoluted plotline that doesn't make any sense. I'm glad that it's done.

Arc is on page 60 of 481 of These Twisted Bonds (These Hollow Vows, #2)

Lark is probably meant to be cute. She's an extremely annoying plot device. Adele, don't read this. WAY too many ACOTAR vibes.

Arc is 28% done with Earth's End (Air Awakens, #3)

Vhalla, a library assistant (who wasn’t allowed to read while working) is suddenly a master tactician who is smarter than people who have spent their whole life studying strategy.

“This was either the smartest or the dumbest thing she had ever done.”

-Vhalla Yarl

It’s definitely not the smartest.

Arc is starting Earth's End (Air Awakens, #3)

Spoke too soon - it wasn't a dream. She just blacked out (again).

Lovely quote by Elecia to Vhalla:
"Did you lose what little intelligence you had in that fall?"

I think Elecia's my new favorite character.

Arc is starting Earth's End (Air Awakens, #3)

First page - the most important, climatic battle at the end of the last book was all a dream.

Checks out.

Arc is finished with Fire Falling (Air Awakens, #2)

This book ends following the trend of the last 350 pages - with Vhalla blacking out.

My hopes are not high for the next book, but I'm committed.

This book sucks.
