Reviews

Rating: 4.5Read: July 28, 2016 It was SO good to get back into a Sanderson Cosmere book and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole book, but upon finishing I felt like I was missing something. After a little thought I realized that though two of the main characters were interesting and strong female characters- and one even experienced some AMAZING character development - they really ended up being support characters to the male characters. I don't really have a problem with this because I still enjoyed getting lost in the world, but I've noticed that this is the case with all of Sanderson's female characters. Still love Sanderson's writing and getting lost in the Cosmere.Reread: July 26, 2023
