Archer was dreaming again, and in the dreams he had no name. He didn‘t remember when he‘d lost it, but now the men called him boy or bootlicker or nothing at all.

We follow three different characters Orka, Varg and Elvar as they are slowly drawn into the political intrigue. This is set in a viking themed fantasy world where magical creatures abound. There is violence and betrayal. I preferred Orka‘s and Varg‘s stories, but all have incredibly hard journeys until in the end they all land in the same bloody, violent battle. I enjoyed this and am looking forward to the second in the series.

Another great Sanderson book. Thank goodness book 5 came out recently as I can‘t wait to see how he wraps up the Stormlight Archives. I would read a million pages with these characters. In this one Kaladin and Dalinar are trying to save the world as usual but still with twists and turns I never see coming. I won‘t give anything away for our #CosmereBuddyRead peeps but one scene at the end literally made me tear up! Can‘t wait to discuss!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

CrowCAH I feel the same with the Stormlight Archive books. Even though they‘re huge, I don‘t mind spending hours with them!!! 2d
JacqMac I want to finish this so badly, but my reading time keeps getting interrupted. 2d

This was an epic conclusion to the trilogy. It felt like an amazing adventure unfolding in front of me. It‘s the stuff true epic stories are made of. I strongly recommend reading this series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I read these when I learned that Tears of the Wolf is a sort of prequel. The writing is not as good as these newest two books, but it‘s a solid story about two cursed individuals trying to survive, break their curses and have fallen in love- and basically a lot of people are trying to capture and or kill them. Also monsters.

PuddleJumper I love her book goblin skits 2d

I just realized I have not been posting books as I read- no clue how that happened!!! I had a hard time getting into this book- and for the first half would have considered it a so-so, but as parts came together I began to enjoy it more and by the end was satisfied with the direction it went in. This is the first of a duology- and I would love to hear other thoughts/discuss with anyone else who read it.

lil1inblue I constantly forget to post reviews. 🫠 I swear I'm reading! 😅 3d

JenniferEgnor I‘m behind on my reviews too. I‘m not sure if I feel pulled to read this book yet but the cover is absolutely gorgeous and I love the title too. 3d
Chrissyreadit @DGRachel Yes!!! I loved Bartholemew and did not see the twist at all!!! 3d
Chrissyreadit @JenniferEgnor I would not rush to read it until the second book comes out in a way- It is very similar in style to Naomi Novak. I think i loved the authors other books from the beginning. BUT the last 25% completely redeemed it for me. 3d
DGRachel This was my first book by this author and I was absolutely enamored by the writing (I think I like One Dark Window a smidge more, although I didn‘t like the sequel to that one as much). I did not expect Bartholomew‘s story to be what it was and it made me sob. I did see the big twist coming though and I don‘t love it, but I‘ll definitely be picking up the next book. 2d
Chrissyreadit @DGRachel I knew the Abbess would be bad - I did not expect that the gargoyles and diviners were children who died or were dying- or that the king - who is only 17 would be so bad!!! especially for what he did to Maude. I thought the Heartsore Weaver was really sad too. And the sprites… so sad. I LOVE how Bartholemew was written and am very worried about how he will fare in book 2 with his injuries. 2d

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I honestly wasn‘t expecting to give “The Road of Bones” a fourth star, however 2/3rds of the way through the character development and plot took a turn that peaked my interest and has me looking forward to reading its sequel. There were a couple plot twists that I saw coming, however I admit that there were still a couple that caught me by surprise.

I‘m a little bit behind. I was traveling all weekend. I had hoped that would give me more reading time, but I had a lot less. I had an absolutely fantastic time though. My daughter and I flew to Toronto to see Stevie Nicks. There was a lot of exploring and eating and dancing and we even got tattoos. But there wasn‘t much reading. I have about 10 chapters left, then I‘ll be back to see what you all thought.

Meshell1313 Ok I‘ll hold my questions. 🤣 4d

JacqMac @Meshell1313 I finished last night. Ask away! Lol I was not expecting Raboniel to stab her daughter. I mean who was. But now I have a serious concerns for all those passed out radiants. Don‘t hurt my Bridge 4! Im diving back in now. 3d
Meshell1313 Ooh yay!!!! Ok I love love love Kaladin‘s and Wit‘s scenes together! What did you think of Adolin‘s trial? Is Shallan finally Shallan? And Rabonial has the power to destroy all of the radiants?!?! 3d
JacqMac I love any scene with Wit. The trial was interesting. I really love that it all came down to who Adolin is as a human. He didn‘t have to do anything aside from being himself. I‘m hoping that Shallan is about to stop splitting into other personalities. I want her to be all of them at once. And I‘m so worried about the next part. There aren‘t a lot of pages left to save the Radiants. 2d

I started my DNF Diaries series on the blog to help me keep track of the books that I dnfed this year. However I‘ve done a horrible job keeping up with them so I‘ll be sneaking some in the rotation to get ready for the end of the year.

I‘m ashamed to say that I dnfed Gardens of the Moon. I want to love this series but it‘s no secret that it‘s long and complex. I‘m a new mom and I just don‘t think it‘s a great time to start this one.
