Bellebon Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Y'all can call me Belle or Bellebon <3 I'm a 21 college student who's been reading Sanderson books since my senior year of high after my brother gave me the Mistborn box set. Needless to say I spent a lot of time reading them instead of studying haha. I'm not a huge theorist (mostly because I'm not aware of all the details out there and so I hesitate) but I love hearing about them! I'm also super into history and love learning about different fun facts! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sami Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Welcome! Sounds like you'll fit in nicely here. Have an up vote. What is your favourite B.S book, top three B.S characters, and if you could have any of the powers in the Cosmere what would you have? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikerEZ Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Hey, welcome to the Shard, @Bellebon! Have an upvote and a free spiked delicious cookie! Spoiler DISCLAIMER: Side effects include, but are not limited to, hearing voices, gaining supernatural powers, having the sudden urge to kill everyone, and completely losing control over your mind and body. The Dark Alley™ claims no liability for any damage done to/by the eater of this cookie. Also, don't worry. You don't need to be a huge theorist to enjoy the site, there's plenty other things to do! If you haven't heard of it yet, there's Sanderson Elimination. It's basically like the party game Mafia, but with several roles based off of characters/powers from Sanderson's books. It's really fun! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellebon Posted July 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) @Sami Thanks <3 Also how in the world can I pick! I would have to say that my fav book is a tie between The Way of Kings and Shadows of Self. I adore WoK and SoS is just amazing (and I love Steris to death). My top three characters would be: Elend, Shallan, and Raoden but it's so hard to pick! As for powers I would either be a mistborn or a windrunner. I just really want to fly and being able to push large and heavy things around would be useful, especially with how long the stormlight books are going to become haha! @StrikerEZ I love cookies! Also it makes me full a lot better knowing that I don't need to know like, all of the details haha. Also Sanderson Elimination sounds wicked! I'll have to check that out! Thanks for letting me know <3 Edited July 28, 2017 by Bellebon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I'm currently reading SoS, I haven't even reached page 100 yet (started reading it yesterday at work), so I know she might surprise me, but so far she's been one of the most annoying characters in the series (well, maybe Allrianne Cett was worse, I can't decide). Now that I know someone likes her, I want to keep reading just to find out why Edited July 29, 2017 by Daydam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there Belle and welcome to our little corner of the Cosmere oh and do eat the cookie that @StrikerEZ just offered you, it's tasty . Have you read all of the Cosmere books and stories? Mistborn was my introduction into Cosmere and Brandon's writing as wel and it naturally has a special place in my heart, though I'd say Words of Radiance is my favorite Cosmere book so far. I cannot wait for Oathbringer! 1 hour ago, Daydam said: I can't believe that.

Now that I know someone likes her, I want to keep reading just to find out why Are you kidding? Steris is one of the most delightful characters in Mistborn and I'd probably put her in my top 10 favorite Cosmere characters. I won't give anything way, suffice it to say that I love her characters progression in the three Era 2 books so far.

Daydam Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 @Gavin-son-son-Odegard I'm so intrigued now... I'll continue reading as soon as I get home! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePathsofPain Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 @Daydam Steris definitely becomes more interesting of a character. I couldn't stand her at first but you grow to love her for what she is and what she knows she's not. I have to agree about Allrianne Cett though, she's the worst. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellebon Posted July 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 @Idealistic I'm duel majoring in history and political science! It's...definitely interesting to study political science right now but I just adore history! What are you studying? @Daydam Steris def grew on me as time went along but after you finish the books she's just. Too Good. I love her so much and I like her so much more than Allrainne (who was ok but def not a top fav). @Gavin-son-son-Odegard I've read most if not all of the Cosmere. I just have a short story or two to finish I think haha. Words of Radience was so good however I def had times where I wanted to slap certain characters because of them being silly haha. Oathbringer is going to sososo good! Also it'll be SO HEAVY but it's worth it haha 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm counting days till November and Oathbringer. Also one of my all time favorite Cosmere characters was introduced in WOR as well, that is the Awesome Lift, god I love her so much. Hope there's more of here in Oathbringer. Edited July 31, 2017 by Gavin-son-son-Odegard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm impressed by anyone who finishes that kind of degree haha. I'm also starting my last year this fall! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodness knows how much I cried in my last semester alone, the further along you get in college the more you cry each time I swear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
