It has been a long debated topic on what Cosmere reading order is the best. Many have been proposed since the beginning of time till now. which order is the best? they all say it's one or another... But they are all wrong. Every single one of them is wrong. There are many things wrong with their orders. They don't have connections well done, they don't maximize series cohesion for the new reader's enjoyment. They often choose one over the other. You see, the greatest Cosmere reading order is the one I have produced over long trial and error. Only I could create this spectacular and entirely amazing reading order. It took me an eternity. An eternity that lasted half an hour of thinking about this over the past two years. I have come up with one of the best, if not the best, reading order that brings together story cohesion and connections in a nice bow. I have prioritized figuring this order out because my friends are reading the Cosmere. I, as the book dealer, want to give them the best quality order for the best quality of books to help their addiction- I mean... journey along. In the end, I have come upon two orders with only slight differences. One where the short stories are almost all read together, in the other the stories are spread out. If you are borrowing Arcanum Unbounded, I recommend that you go with the first order. If you own Arcanum Unbounded, I recommend the latter. The best order is the latter, but the first one works just as well for enjoyment. Hint for new readers: pay attention to those epigraphs. (fair warning, I put slight explanations of each story in front of each one as if this were a pitch to a new reader. For the more important ones, I put in more detailed descriptions) The first: The second order (the novella order):' Hey, I had a lot of fun putting that together (despite the fact that I had to rewrite the whole list once because spoiler boxes can be ridiculous). I'd be glad for feedback, especially on where to put some of the short stories. otherwise, I think I did a good job, as my arrogant intro might suggest. I was doing my best Daniel Greene impression. As Sean Astin once said, "Go reading!"

Gets Starlight Shimmer. Inserts Journey before Pancakes.

That sounds epic!

Why would I? All the people in Andor were saying it in that episode, so it's not like if I said no, you couldn't use the quote from one of the other billion people who said it.

So... You're saying tanavast is named Tan? That bloody tan...

ah- fixed now.

@The Last Fæ

the bad thing about Shallan is that her arc in RoW is bad imo.

They could throw leaves at one of the orcs and say "Leaf me alone!"

I JUST FOUND OUT SOMETHING BIG. Ryan Reynold's wife's sister is a member of the church. That sister was in Dwight in Shining Armor, that one byu tv show. That sister is also married to coach what's his face from high school musical and he's also in the church. How did I not know this-

Eyyy! Here we go.

matisse.

Fine. I'll do it myself *votes for sleep*

Nah, I win.

Hey, I'm curious... Apparently 918 people were online early in the morning... was that because of the site update automatically made people online or just a lot of people had the itch to pop on the Shard?

I- *indecision and chaos*

What do you mean!? A deer could be added. The vin-ison.
