After 400k+ words, I don't have anything other than awestruck. The emotions were high, the Sander-Lanch is real. I was so close to all out tears many times in this book.

The "Conclusions" kind of feels like an ass pull to me, I may need to review what exactly happened again, but man oh man what a story.

I've gotten so many amazing quotes out of the book on my kindle, I really need to pick out the best!

The most important step is always the next step!

The Stormlight Archive just keeps getting better. The best book to this point. The grandest in scale. The most emotional. Any time I turned the page and saw a Dalinar flashback chapter I’d fist pump. More and more intriguing characters getting more and more attention. This book shines and it excels. I want to permanently live on Roshar as The Stormlight Archive is in my Roman Empire (obviously joking, living on Roshar would be a nightmare). These books fill my soul with glee and may takeover my whole personality someday.

Slow in the beginning and I could see why it was so unpopular but honestly I loved it, it made me laugh and cry and gasp because there is just so much going on in this one.
Sanderson is gonna drive me crazy waiting on the next book when he left off so well with this one.
