  1. Storms.

    Yumi is so good.

    It has probably the most masterful ending of any book I've ever read, and the story just connected with me on so many levels. 

    Spoilers:

    Spoiler

    When I found out the she was a nightmare, I literally cried for Nikaro. And when she was sacrificing herself it was right, but so sad. And then the second ending was like the best thing. I'm not even making sense of my emotions. There is now no doubt in my mind that Brandon is a master artist. 

    Yumi is def now, if not my favorite, then in my top 2 favorite books ever. It took a little to get into it but storms was it worth it.

      …what’s the other of your top two?

      I loved Yumi. It was…art. It made me want to paint and write and play with rocks and eat ramen noodles all at once.

      You cannot have my pain connects more with me than any line in any other book I've ever read

      I agree 100% on OB. Dalinar’s arc was amazing.

  2. I think I have decided what I will be doing for my 4000 post special.

      I'm obv Thaid what do you mean? 

  9. Happy Easter everyone! 

    How are y'all doin?

  10. 6 down

    Tress is such a good book I really should have read it sooner.

    And all the cosmeric tidbits are just...so good. Hoid's 'voice' is very masterfully done. 

    Spoilers, not to the plot:

    Spoiler

    A couple things that stood out on the cosmere level while reading. First, Tress's description of Death matches that of Marsh the Inquisitor which is quite... interesting.

    Also, when Hoid mentions when they undid Adonalisum, he says it was himself and 16 others. I wonder if this means if there were nobody else, and if so I'm kind of surprised as I assumed the dawnshards were 'split up' in the same way and at the same time as all the shards.

    Anyway, one of my more favorite cosmere books by far. 

    1. Lego Mistborn

      Lego Mistborn

      Honestly, the ending didn't land with me. There wasn't any buildup to it and it felt like nothing actually happened. Plus the [Redacted] came out of nowhere and doesn't make sense.

  11. I need one sentence story premises to practice writing cuz I can't think of any good ideas...

    Lightsongs sacrifice almost made me cry this time around, not sure why

    I had forgotten that Vashers returned name was Warbreaker the Peaceful. 

  13. Jury Duty is quite interesting

    Also the butterfly effect is very intriguing

    Siri is a very fun character to read this time around

      Do you want to be on the case? Because if you say that you don't want to, they won't usually pick you.

      Lego Mistborn

      Dang though, usually they pick the same day don't they?

      Now I wonder though, there's a high profile case near me. I kinda want to ask where you live. But internet safety is important, so don't tell me, except maybe a general area.

    4. Experience

      I think it'd be interesting to be on the case, as I can learn more about the legal process doing it. I live in San Diego, but my case is a civil case, so it's groups suing each other.

  14. Has anyone here ever played Eve, the MMORPG?

      ... That's Celeste. Which I've never played.

      I've heard of Eve, and read a Wikipedia article about a battle that happened in it, but have never played it.

      Yeah, Celeste is a platformer. 

      Eve is a space sandbox MMO

      Hey, mine is in July. I expect for you to be my counselor and I will haunt you if not.

  16. Are there any films that showcase characters with synesthesia? 

    Cuz I can't find any and I'm kinda surprised 

  17. Little Life Update:

    Have officially started my cosmere reread in preparation of KoWaT. Finished era 1 of mistborn (spook was one of my favorites to read this time around) as well as alloy of law. 

    Watched Damsel tonight, it's a new movie on Netflix. Would def recommend. Very well done and no nudity or anything like that (yay!)

    Finally started outlining a short film, the working title of which is Joy. More updates as I progress with that.

    Still looking for a new show to watch cuz I finished stranger things, so if you have any ideas hit me up.

    My brothers and I are starting a landscaping business, which has been very...interesting to say the least. 

    I know I'm going to major in media arts, but I've been trying to decide if I should minor in acting (whatever the technical name for it is idk), or if I should just take acting classes because I also want to try acting out for funzies. Still have a little time to figure that all out though.

    Yeah that's about it. I love y'all and you're amazing!

    Also no point in counting in this one cuz the previous is still going lol

      It's always good to hear from you!

      I would also recommend Demon Slayer (my pfp came from somewhere . . .) like Panda, but I would like to add that it is rated TV-MA on netflix, which is important to consider. It's mostly rated that way because it's really violence, and there's a lot of onscreen gore. I personally don't think it's that bad, but gore and violence have never really bothered me that much, so I guess I can't really say. It does also have some sexual references in it. (I highly recommend checking out the IMDB parents guide for more info.

      Another really good anime you could watch is Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. It's honestly one of the best fantasy stories ever written (imo)--I'm not sure where you can stream that though.

      I did start watching Damsel last night, and I'm about halfway through. So far I haven't been super impressed, so I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it when I'm finished.

      Thanks y'all for the ideas

      And to be fair I enjoyed damsel more for the cinematography than the plot

    4. Mags

      Mags

      Oh, yeah, I agree the cinematography is really good! I feel like I can't give a solid opinion yet because I haven't finished it yet. If nothing else, it's nice to have a fantasy story without lots of content.

  18. Stranger Things is a work of art

      It does it a bit gory as it goes along, but the story and cinematography and world building is all soooo good

  19. 2 Lucid Dreams in one week hits hard

    1. The Bookwyrm

      The Bookwyrm

      Define "lucid".

      Because technically all my dreams feel lucid while I'm in them.

      I think.

      I forget my dreams most times.

      And I rarely know I'm in a dream, if that's what you mean by lucid.

    2. Experience

      I knew I was in the dream, I had control over myself, and I remembered most(ly) everything that happened. 

      It's def odd as I normally never remember my dreams at all
