what do you meannnnnn the wind god dropped kissen off at the wrong city so she’s not going to reunite with the others and get the show back on the road… what a SCAM
the reviews are saying this one does pick up a bit about 2/3 of the way through so i am really hoping that is true

not to come back on here and rant again but i couldn’t even summarise the previous 200 pages of what i’ve read. like i could not tell you what is really happening or why it is happening. feels a bit like when the stormlight archive books became a bit too long and unwieldy for me to keep track of events and character arcs but this is 200 pages!!!

problem with this one I think is that all the perspectives are just so disjointed, I have no idea what is the big picture we’re working towards and even more I have barely any idea of what these individual characters’ goals are, let alone how they’re going to weave together… hopefully kissen is finally about to reunite with the others though and something can actually HAPPEN and hopefully it makes sense too

mildly struggling with this one i must admit

yeah i don't know what it is about this book that makes me have like a mental barricade around reading it, maybe second book syndrome, maybe "fantasy series starts off with a really cool concept but inevitably becomes About War" syndrome
like it's FINE but definitely not capturing me like reading godkiller for the first time

attempt 2!!! determined to wrap up this trilogy by the end of the year!!! finally got my hands on a physical copy which i do think will help

ok actually reading this for real this time i promise (made it to chapter 2!)

i feel like it has been one million years since i read a fantasy series… i am excited but also fear for my brain’s capacity to remember details from previous books - 4ish weeks since i read book 1 and then a few solid months until book 3 comes out… we shall see
