Wow! This book was overwhelming at first, because of the intricate world building and the way Jemisin just drops you in to everything. (Pro tip - there is a very helpful appendix with vocab and history notes at the back of the book!) BUT the hard work definitely pays off. I was completely fascinated by the characters, the world, and the unanswered questions. Definitely plan to keep going in the trilogy. #thebrokenearth #thefifthseason #jemisin

“Oh, yeah. This one‘s a keeper”
I‘m nearing halfway through this epic fantasy, and I feel like I‘m finally getting my hooks into the story. A harder read than what I have been choosing lately. But sometimes a challenge is nice.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
All white people should definitely read this and then give it to all other white people you know. Especially the chapter “White Women‘s tears” is enlightening.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A new, refreshing fantasy series. What a treat.

Intricate world-building, compelling characters, plot developments that were wild-but-not-too-wild. This book did not disappoint despite the hype and I can‘t wait to read the next. #thefifthseason #nkjemisin

I recently finished going through The Fifth Season again, but this time in audiobook. I wondered beforehand if it would be as good the second time around. It was better. I‘d forgotten more than I‘d realized, but there were details, some obvious and others subtle, that I‘d missed the first time. I‘m more convinced than ever that N.K. Jemisin is a writing genius. #TheFifthSeason #TheBrokenEarth #EpicFantasy #NKJemisin

Decided to revisit The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin, this time in audiobook, while walking Wicket at the park today. Robin Miles does a wonderful job bringing the story to life. Knowing how it all ends makes this story even more fun and amazing. #audiobook #TheBrokenEarth #TheFifthSeason #WicketsWorld #DogsOfLitsy
