Apologies for the ranty nature. I read alot of books sure but my writting is trash
I started reading Sanderson with tress of the emerald sea. It was fantastic and Sandersons style was very catching to me. Recently, I made the decision to read more of his work. Sanderson suggested on his site an order and I started by his suggestion with Mistborn. Absolutely loving it still very catching but, in my opinion, it's much weaker than tress a book he made much later. Just going into the last of the 3 in the apparent first run so I'll be done in about 5 days. Thus, I'm looking for my next few books to read.
My major worry is that it just won't catch with me. If I start a book that's reasonably good but doesn't pull me back in I find myself failing to read it or anything else for quite some time. I essentially took a 6 month reading hiatus when I read Lessons in birdwatching a good, though very flawed, book. I'd do 20-50 pages a month with that book. Before I was reading daily for a few years, and after I've been doing the same, but sometimes I just find a book I won't give up and can't find myself excited to read.
He states that his suggestion to start with mistborn comes from the fact that he finds elantris to be weaker. With this in mind I'd like to know if it'd be worth it to skip the book, read the wiki or some synopsis, and move on to his more recent work. With nearly 600 pages that book would take 3-6 days of reading depending on how well it catches.
Is this sacrilege? Is the writing a serious downgrade for somebody who liked very much liked mistborn though thought it weak at times?
The authors great though. The guys got me planning to read what I asssume is magi-punk from the cover art for mistborn 4 which is not something I'd do normally
I'm not vegan but I agree what the absolute fuck. It's like when I learned some jams weren't vegan. It's strawberry my guy. I've made strawberry jam and I never needed to add in cow.
So much random stuff just adds meat and meat by product and I'm just here thinking "why"? Is it just that cow bone and tendons are usually waste product and thus cheap? Massive subsidies extending all the way down?
No culture in history has eaten as much meat as we do. It's not usually a daily thing let alone something that's just kinda also in everything.
They be putting fish juice in our beer to make it clear and bones in our sugar to make it whiter. Our money has tallow in it.
