The first time I picked up a Brandon Sanderson book I was walking around in a library looking to pass the time because there was a haboob outside. I was not a reader and had not read a book since highschool(12 years ). I just grabbed one off the return cart and started reading. It was The Way of Kings. Let me tell you... The book changed my life in more ways than I ever thought possible. Now, reading is a huge part of my life and I have learned about new authors and exciting worlds. Brandon is the best and his books rule!
