Hoid-my-beer Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Hello all! I’m Xandria. I am absolutely stoked to be here! I’ve always had a desire to dissect, theorize and discuss books, but after reading my first Sanderson work (Mistborn) that desire suddenly became necessary for me to fully understand and appreciate his work… especially when trying to wrap my brain around the Cosmere. So, suffice it to say I’m more than just a little excited to have a place to do just that, with people who appreciate Sanderson's work as I do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoid-my-beer Posted March 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Exactly. I am no Koloss thank you very much! And yes, I agree, yum. Alas, the spikes… Thankfully I am absolutely Radiant as I am and have no need for spikes. But I will continue my stalwart safe-keeping of said cookie, because now i find it sentimental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
