Kaladin has aura

It’s so funny to me that men can’t read or write in this world. It’s a “feminine activity.” And you know what, hell yeah.

God dammit Shallan isn’t in part two AT ALL?

Nan Balat makes me ill

HOID

Perfect spot to end part 1 for both Shallan and Kaladin - both cautiously hopeful!

“She would apprentice herself to Jasnah Kholin, scholar, heretic. Not for the education. Not for the prestige. But in order to learn where she kept her Soulcaster.
And then Shallan would steal it.”

The end of this chapter is GAS. Also, my previous confusion makes way more sense now.

Shallan wants to study under a famous historian and has undertaken natural history as her chosen speciality, but just admitted she doesn’t know much about history? COME ON GIRL

Let’s get this show on the road PLEASE. I trust Brandon and there is still 950 pages to go, but DAMN nothing has happened yet

cackling cause I’m 50 pages in and only on chapter 2. Sanderson is really doing whatever tf he wants I love it
