Been interested in John Gwynne for a while so decided to read this, first 20% is really cool and it managed to get me invested in the 3 lead characters very quick. I’m a sucker for anything based in Norse Mythos so something as rich with that as this and prose this pretty gripped me immediately

I watched 100 new movies this year and ranked them for fun. Lot of action movies this year, especially from the 80s/90s. Here's to another 100+ next year 🫡 #filmsky

Posted rough thoughts in the quotes. Definitely not without its flaws and some of Sandersons weakest writing at times but he managed to conclude things satisfyingly and hit home on most moments that mattered. I had fun

do worry for the future though, especially seeing how hectic his future release schedule is, I really think some time is needed to work on the flaws here because it feels like an enormous step back. Even more frustrating because you sometimes see the potential, then it’s gone. All in all, I had fun

I think he really hit home with some of the core themes about choice, free will and utilitarianism but fell flat with others.

It’s more of what I expected post OB and RoW, quality varying in some areas but overall more enjoyable. I got what I wanted from this, like I said Sanderson is unparalleled at delivering big moments and finding the right resolutions, I’m happy where things have left off.

His prose has always been where he falls flat the hardest but never something that’s stood out to me but it’s pretty obvious here. Coupled with the mental health theme exploration here being its lowest :/ no subtlety or nuance and no respect for the audience

Non spoiler SA5 thoughts For what it’s worth I enjoyed this book but his weaknesses are more blatant than they’ve ever been, this is his lowest as a writer on the micro level. On the macro he’s always gonna deliver, big AAA blockbuster type stuff is his bag but man.

Also finally beat FF7 Rebirth.. started both this and Persona 3R when they released in early 2024 but all my time was taken up by tekken. Feels good to come back around and get them done www.backloggd.com/u/rahat_/rev...

Game has too much soul for me to hate it, I love these characters and the way they're brought to life in the remakes. <br><br>unfortunately, even as someone who enjoyed the narrative changes in Remake...

52% in things are starting to pick up, enjoyed day 5 a lot. Sanderson’s constant spoon feeding gets a little jarring at times but whatever, I’m ready for this last 50% I have so many questions

Finished Persona 3 Reload and Baptism of Fire today 👍🏽 accidentally lost my 44 reading streak so I’m taking that as a sign to take a break until Stormlight 5

Not embarrassing at all man. For me the passion comes in waves, and while I’m feeling it now I’m trying to make the most of it before I can’t bring myself to read a page for another 6 months. Soon I’ll be back in a film phase and eventually back to gaming

She hasn’t really had her moment yet she’s had a few here and there, but man the series definitely suffers from male author syndrome BAD

Also reached a reading streak of minimum 1 hour for 35 days straight 😁 hope I can keep it going through to the new year but it’ll be tough

Finished Blood of Elves yesterday Some of the most fun dialogue I’ve read, every conversation is like a back and forth jousting match. This is what I was looking for when beginning the series, it was worth slogging through The Last Wish and Sword of Destiny. I’ll die for my daughter Ciri

read both of these this weekend they weren’t amazing but had hints of something special (also hints of some very awful stuff) but excited for things to finally get going in Blood of Elves. Some people should not be allowed to write any scenes involving women lol

Veilguard definitely has issues (tonal consistency, dialogue, detached from previous entries, generally feeling very safe) but I’m having a ton of fun. First 2 hours were solid and the combat is super enjoyable, 60% of what I’m here for
