it was amazing
bookshelves: 2024, buddy-read, fantasy

It took me a more time than usual between finishing this book and writing the review, and I’m somehow still looking for the right words to do it

It doesn’t really matter, ”All of these words are noise. The only role the brain plays in these decisions is to come up with the explanation after the heart has chosen�, and my heart stands for the first words I’ve found: It was brilliant!

In the Book That Broke the World we see the world-building expand, while remaining claustrophobic in its vastness, we are introduced to new characters and sides of the conflict, we follow the characters we are already fond of, and get to unexpectedly fall in love with characters we already knew and couldn’t imagine how much they would mean to us.

This series has been the perfect mix of entertaining, thought provoking, devastating and heartwarming. I have no idea where the story is going, but it has been a hell of a ride.

Thank you Charles for buddy reading this with me!

Charles It was just brilliant, I could not agree more. Fortunately for me, I had an absolutely great buddy reading partner to experience it with. Thank you so much for that!
