WHY are we doing an OOTD??? You’re about to be EXECUTED

JUST MAKING THEM SAD ALL THE TIME IS NOT REAL CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

This would be a lot more creepy and mysterious if the book wasn’t called “The Invisible Man.” I know why no one saw the intruder even though they all heard him. It’s because he’s invisible.

Suck it, tomorrow me. Unfortunately for you, this book is really good and I’m not going to sleep.

It would be great if we could get some more Shallan up in here

Super interesting fun beginning

Bro I just can’t believe that having these bridge crews die on the reg with ZERO attempts at even a smidge of protection and then replacing them every week is cheaper than trying a little harder to keep the army alive.

I like Dalinar and Adolin’s relationship a lot but it kinda feels like nothing is actually happening in their POVs.

It’s a good thing Brandon keeps explaining how much the money is worth whenever he mentions a certain denomination because I swear they are always different and I am NOT keeping track.

Just absolutely so much world being built rn

I’m not usually a huge Colonel Race fan but I think this book might have the sauce

Oh she gonna be a long one

Brandon if you don’t come through for me I’m losing hope

Unfortunately, in this book Nick is a simp (derogatory)

Girl we are too far into this series for Bree to be this short sighted. Oh yeah let’s just go get the demon king his magic crown that gives him power, surely then he’ll stop causing problems for humans. ???

Oh how dearly I wish the 5 narrators in this book had tried even a little bit to make their voices for characters consistent. Like why does Valec have a southern accent now when he didn’t earlier.

And also I truly wish, from the bottom of my heart, that Tracy had not written a Scottish character. We have enough representation. None of these 5 narrators can do a Scottish accent even remotely passably. And they try.

Why are we introducing a new Big Bad Guy at this point in the book

Why are we keeping Sel around?? He’s clearly a problem.

Just Bri making mistake after mistake after bad decision with no discernible plan or realistic acknowledgment of the circumstances she is in yet.

I sense some ✨growth✨ is about to take place.

Have I ever heard of finishing a book instead of just starting new ones?

To that I say, have you ever heard of minding your own business?

I’m a little confused about the technological capabilities of this civilization. You have MAGIC and electricity but not much in the way of heavy artillery and we’re still primarily using trench warfare??

Also absolutely bonkers that these two are literally in the trenches and all they can think about is flirting with each other.

I’m very curious about the next 50%. I have a lot of questions about the world. The main characters also have a very simple understanding of more complex topics. Ex: their close family/friends are fighting in a war and it seems like they were convinced to join by some almost hypnotic experience with a god(ess). These friends are called heroic/selfless without any skepticism about the process. Hope that is explored.

I’m starting wayyy too many audiobooks with limited plane rides to finish them all. But I just love this book and have a hankering for it again.

Wow this is a lot of politics and titles to learn really quickly 🥴

Reading this book on the recommendation of one of the YouTubers I watch who liked it. Do I think it will be a good book? Frankly, no lol. But I will keep an open mind through the silliness and I will probably still have a good time.

I regret to inform the public that this book is still really boring and I am FIGHTING to get through every chapter

I love my gal Agatha but she says some out of pocket things about Persian people in this book.

I fear this book may have nothing to do with Ophelia from Hamlet and it’s just the main character’s name

I’m not totally sure what I think of the writing style so far. I think I like it. It reads a lot more like a myth than it reads like Shakespeare. And definitely more than it reads like fanfiction, which is really what this book is, let’s be honest.
