    I also felt so bored by The Hero of Ages! I thought I was the only one. 🙏🏼

    I was also bored with Mistborn Era 1, but loved the Stormlight Archive after part two of The Way of Kings.

    I agree about mistborn. I wasn’t “wow’d” but I’ll say that it’s way more YA than stormlight. Totally different

    Demon in White was great but Kingdoms Of Death was even better. It's more focused but also packs a stronger emotional punch with the invents there and also expands the cielcin's culture, history and lore. Such a fantastic series tbh

    I really want to start the Sun Eater series, but when I found out that it was more than three books, I pulled back. After finishing The Wheel of Time earlier this year, Im series-ed out smh. I think it's going to be my designated 2025 series, though.

    Aaahhh!!! I read These Burning Stars based off of your recommendation and it became one of the best books I've read in my entire life! So thank you! And I'm so excited that the second book is just as good, and that more of the political tension is present. After the first book, I really have no prediction whatsoever as to what is going to happen next, and I'm so excited to discover more and be surprised!

    So, I decided to dip my toe in to Sanderson by reading the first Mistborn book and Way of Kings. And let me tell you, Mistborn DID NOT grab me. I liked it just fine, but felt no desire to dive into book 2. And then many months later I decided to read Way to Kings and the experience was completely different. I LOVE Stormlight Archive and dove straight into Words of Radiance (and I'm currently reading that now).

    I felt the same way about Mistborn too. The first book was really good but there were parts of book 2 and 3 that were a little lackluster. But I did overall enjoy the trilogy. I personally think Stormlight is better.

    I feel the same way about Mistborn. I LOVE The Stormlight Archives but I found Mistborn to be a big boring and harder to get through.
    I’ll have to check out These Burning Stars! Sounds enticing!
    And say one thing for Abercrombie, say he likes to repeat jokes and humor through his books haha. I’m still super excited to read The Devils but I can picture what you’re getting at with the humor since some humorous moments in his other books got tiring for me at times. But I still give his books minimum of 4 stars since it’s not enough to lose me haha

      I'm in the middle of Words of Radiance, Magnolia Parks, All The Colors In The Dark. And I'm listening The way of Kings over again while I go to bed. I read it the first time but it's also really cool to re-listen to the way of Kings while I'm reading word of radiance because it refreshes me on certain things I may have forgotten. It's great to go to sleep with. Especially after reading it already.

    Sanderson is an acquired taste, but I don't hear many people say it or loud. It's like it's weirdly taboo or something. My partner and sister really don't like his writing, while i love it. 🤷 He definitely likes to write long books, so the story can drag just for that reason. Hopefully, Stormlight Archive is more to your taste, but if not no big deal. Put it down and go read something you love instead! ❤ ❤
