Wind's Pleasure Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 not gonna lie I read bastille's letter at the end of book 5 before actually reading the book I swear I feel like she's a monster from my closet who will spring out one day and put me in a choke hold saying, "You shouldn't have read the letter!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mestiv Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I think Sixth was weird, but ok. I had to start Warbreaker 2 times, because I got bored on my first try and just stopped reading. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farnsworth Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I forgot Wax’s name when talking to my uncle who is a Sanderfan. I just called MB part 2 “Wayne and... what’s his name? That other guy” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khyrindor Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Mistborn SH spoilers: Spoiler I spoiled Kelsier's life after death to no less than three people, albeit accidentally. I also commonly recommend SH be read right after of HoA rather than after BoM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farnsworth Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 @Khyrindor SH spoilers: Spoiler I spoiled Keseir's original death to my brother. Then I corrected myself by saying that I would live until era two so it wasn't spoiled. Then I told him that it was a lie, even though it is actually kind of true. He now thinks that I lied to him, when what he thinks is a lie is the truth and what he thinks is the truth is a lie. I am a really bad sister. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe both of our responses to siblings and friends inquiring about plot elements like that should just be a RAFO and a sly smile. ....I also shamelessly taunt my family with "what if I told you [insert something ridiculous here] happens in Oathbringer" as I usually read the books before them. Or going, "Ohhh MY, I just learned something so COOL about Redacted that you would be interested in *sly smile*" I hope they don't hate me xD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathrangking Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I had to try reading Elantris three times before getting through it. It took forever for the pace to pick up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllomancerSam Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I started Way of Kings no less than three times and just couldn't get into it. Eventually I ran out of other Cosmere books to read and had to pick it back up and actually keep reading past the prelude. It's not that it didn't interest me, I just wasn't ready. I own not one but two sets of the Reckoners trilogy, and I still haven't read it. I just keep putting it off, probably because once I'm done with those I'll have no more unread Brandon Sanderson books (barring Wheel of Time 12-14 and some non-cosmere short fiction) and idk if I'm ready for that yet. On more a secret secret note, for a while I thought I would never read Mistborn because the premise didn't really interest me, and my best friend told me that it was too violent for me (she was wrong), so I told her that she could spoil it for me since I wasn't going to read it and she wanted to talk to someone about it. Thankfully she didn't spoil much, just a couple of character deaths, nothing too deeply plot related, but I still regret it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MistbornAlpaca Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 I, @Master OoklaJack, read the last line of every single book I read! And I'm not ashamed! (Although I probably should but let's be honest, last lines don't usually reveal that much) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind's Pleasure Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 I listened to War Breaker on audible and the narrator was terrible! usually Micheal Kramer read them but not War breaker. He made light song sound like a surfer dude... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penumbra Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 The first time I read Way of Kings, I read the prologue and then just stopped because I got bored. I picked it up again a few months later and had an entirely different experience though. Now I'm like ??? It's the most action, foreshadowing, cool prologue I've ever read, how did I get bored with it the first time? What was wrong with me??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
