@Sophie

Yeah, I think I made the schedule and thread before you posted this one.. It's now updated to your new schedule.

@Luca

Sorry, didn't have time to try and split it into chapters, although if I remember correctly there are main chapters split into sub-chapters which makes it more time consuming to split it equaly. If it's easier for you to track, and have % showing, it's 5% of the book every day.

The moment I saw this is going to be a buddy read I was curious to see your reactions for the ending.
I read it a few years back and it was alright, if I'm going to judge it now based on the rating I gave, but I remember hating the end and being WTF

I'm obviously not reading/reading very very slow, so I'm way behind. I just read two chapters the 7th and 8th, and that's going to be it for today because I'm tired and have to go to sleep because of of work.

Hopefully, I'll sit down one day when I'm not feeling sleepy and read a big chunk of it, because I like the narration and it reminds me of the nice feeling while I read the previous books.

So continuing it and reading chapter 3.. from the first sentence I feel I'll enjoy following Riv, but I guess we'll see.

*I still don't remember who is who from the previous series we've read, and I haven't looked up some summary... so yeah, you'll probably have to remind me who was who and did what, because I think your memory is way better than mine. Balur the one eyed is a name that I recognize but... that's about it.
* I like that Bleda and Riv are the same age or at least close.
* Read chapter 5. Sig also sounds familiar but...

It happened... I finished the book, it only took me two months 😅
And probably because I was reading it for so long I had no connection to... anything. It didn't feel interesting.
