Ok. I'm not going to have enough points to even it out yet but I will try to remember to read my little siblings a bunch of books this evening.

[BooksNCrannies, ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Ok. Hopefully I'll be able to finish more of my graphic novels soon to make it more near a number ending in a zero.

[Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Ok. No big deal either way. We can be without a zero for a bit. lol

Thanks!!

Jazzie how was Way of Kings? Its been on my tbr for months now.

Sharon I'm trying to get ahold of Law of Aloy and start Wax and Wayne too 😂

[Sharon, ⭒botm leader⭒]

@Angela—I definitely enjoyed era 2 more than era 1.😍 Just fyi…one character can be very crude. I don’t think he is too bad in the first book, though.

[Jasmine (Jazzie)]

@Angela, it was pretty good! I did struggle to get into it at first, and none of the plot twists surprised me (regardless of the fact that I read the ending early 🫣 I had suspected that twist within the first couple hundred pages...). Although I'm not saying that his plot twists are actually easy to figure out, per se, I've heard quite a few people say they weren’t able to figure them out, it's just that apparently I must be pretty good at figuring out plot twists (perhaps a bit too good 😞).

But anyway, I think my least favorite parts about the book were the random POVs, like, I know they contribute to the plot, but I just wasn't a fan of them nor the characters with those POVs.

The content wasn't as bad as I worried it might be either, like, it wasn't as clean as I would have liked, but I had expected worse from what I've heard about some of the other books in the series. Off the top of my head, most of what content I remember is like, some language, violence, and a trigger warning for a su*cide attempt.

So yeah, overall it was good, but definitely not one of my favorite books. I have it rated 4 stars on Goodreads, but honestly I might knock it down to a 3.75 or 3.50 star in my review once I ever get around to writing it, lol.

Yeah, if you're good at figuring out twists you might be able to predict the twists in it.... Like I predicted a lot of the plot twists in Sanderson's newest book, so I think they're not too hard to predict if you pay attention to every little detail, lol.
Ohhhh okay.... Yeah I can see why the random povs would be confusing.
But what was your favorite pov??
Ohhhh.... Yeah there is that stuff in it, although I think most of the language is "Storms" or "Stormfather" or "Kelek's breath" or something about one of th other heralds or something.
I can't wait to see your full review on it!!

[Jasmine (Jazzie)]

@Lil, oh, okay! Well, I suppose I shouldn't keep my hopes up that Sanderson will throw in a twist that with stump me then, lol.

Mmm.... probably Wit's!

Yeah, most of it was the fake bad language, but there were some real ones thrown in, too.

Thank you!! Although it's probably going to be quite a while until I get it written because I'm soooo behind on reviews. 😂😭

[Jasmine (Jazzie)]

So it doesn't get lost....

Total Points: 39,781

[Lillian]

Well, they might stump you-- but WoK was more predictable, so some of the later books might not.
Ooooo Wit's pov is great!! Wit is so funny 🤣
Yeah....
Ofc!! Ohhh okay...

[Angela]

@Sharon that makes me really excited to dig into it!!

@Jazzie hehe I'm always trying to figure out the ending (or twists in general) and am so thrilled when I get surprised, so now I'm extra curious!
Mm yeah sometimes a random pov switch is more distracting than effective.
Thanks for the heads up, I appreciate it! I always have the best of intentions for writing reviews myself 😅😂 but let us know when you do get around to it!

[BooksNCrannies, ⭒assistant mod⭒]

Fantastic job on all the points, everyone!!!

[Jasmine (Jazzie)]

@Angela, oh, great! Mhm. No problem! I'll definitely post the link to it in the reviews thread once I get it done!
