Sankara Jayanth S is starting The Hound of the Baskervilles (Sherlock Holmes, #5)
Reading this for the 5th time this year.

I've been reading too much fantasy lately. I want to read something familiar and nothing better and quick than this awesome novel. I will never get tired of this book.


Dr. Mortimer looked strangely at us for an instant, and his voice sank almost to a whisper as he answered: "Mr Holmes, they were the footprints of s gigantic hound!”

These damned T-Rexes and Raptors! I love dinosaurs, I'd have loved if they survived, but fuck, these two predatory species would have eaten humans willy nilly for breakfast every day if they did survive.

Woak up. Got dresd. Had brekfast. Spoke wif Ergates thi ant who sed itz juss been wurk wurk wurk 4 u lately master Bascule, Y dont u ½ a holiday? & I agreed.

This is how the text is when the narration follows this Bascule character. Raw phonetics instead of actual words. This is going to be a slow read, but very interesting nevertheless.

Okay. What the hell did I just read in the first 3 pages, hahaha!

I'm completely flustered and amazed. The sentences, if we can call them that, don't make any sense. And yet, they do and when they do, more questions!

My first foray into Iain M. Banks' sci-fi work and it looks promising! I plan to give his Culture series a go next year.

PS: Kickass cover, love it!

Spook's character arc is coming along so well.

I'm reminded of Netflix's Daredevil version of Matt Murdock.

Oh, holy fuck, I was not expecting that. Shit!

The whole Zane subplot is groan-worthy, at least for me, but I did not expect this, out of nowhere. Ow fuck, why!

I'm slowly turning indifferent to what's happening. I'm not impressed, pace is slow and the story is not as entertaining as it was at the start. Part of the plot is stupid.

The allomancy fights are becoming quite silly to be frank. I'm afraid that I won't enjoy allomancy for much longer if nothing new isn't going to be introduced. I'm beginning to reconsider my plan to read Era 2 of Mistborn.

PS: I love OreSeur!

Okay. I've read some reddit post about Sanderson's usage of the phrase "eyebrows raised". Apparently, he uses it almost 50 times in each book, and there are 4-5 of his books to which this applies.

Reading this book now, I'm observing another reused expression. Vin frowns a lot. I mean, like for every 2 pages. Jesus, hahaha!

Dear Vin, fuck off with your stupid arrogance and immaturity.

You have an irrational mistrust towards OreSeur. You claim kandra are unnatural. Well, guess what, allomancy is unnatural too, the fucking red sun is unnatural, you have no problem with that!

You just killed a dog for the contract, while the kandra itself says it won't kill. And you talk about Kelsier's imperfections. Oh, give me a fucking break!
