After three years of waiting, the fourth book of the Stormlight Archive arrived last November. It’s almost like a birthday present for me! And damn if it wasn’t worth the wait.

Book Review: Warbreaker
This is the last full book in my big Sanderson catchup read! (I came to Sanderson late). After knocking out the Mistborn Era 2 books (not reviewed here, because hiatus), I finally bought Warbreaker.
Book Review: The Hero of Ages
I've been spacing these out, but we're finally here--the conclusion to the first Mistborn trilogy! How does it hold up against its predecessors?
Book Review: The Well of Ascension
It's that time again readers - time to review the second book in a trilogy. Will The Well of Ascension pass the test with flying colors? Or will it succumb to the doldrums of middle book syndrome?
Book Review: Mistborn (The Final Empire)
I was told by several people that if I wanted to start reading Sanderson, I should start with the Mistborn series. If you're a regular reader, you'll know I didn't listen. The Way of Kings just appealed to my epic fantasy loving self more than the thief-with-heart-of-gold vibe I got from reading Mistborn jacket copy. But now that I'm finally caught up with Stormlight Archive, I needed a new Sanderson fix.
Book Review: Oathbringer
The books in The Stormlight Archive keep getting longer - and yet somehow they keep getting better too. I picked up Oathbringer right after its release in November, and it's my favorite Sanderson story yet.
Best Books of 2017
It's that time of year, readers - the time of lists and recaps, of bests and worsts. Below are my top ten SFF books of 2017!
Book Review: Words of Radiance
I've been putting Words of Radiance off because I wanted to get closer to the release of Oathbringer, the third Stormlight Archive book which released in November. Also it's huge and rather intimidating. But I finally read it in October and discovered that I enjoyed it much more than The Way of Kings.
Book Review: The Way of Kings
Before we begin, I have a disclaimer: this is the first Brandon Sanderson book I've read.* Yeah, I'm aware he's big in fantasy, and I'm also aware that most Sanderson fans recommend that newcomers read Mistborn first. I laugh in the face of convention, etc.
