I’m finishing up Robots and Empire then I’ll start Yumi. How would you rate it versus other Cosmere works? No spoilers please.
Been waiting for this to go on sale. Thank you for the heads up!
Just finished Robots and Empire. So I think I’m going to read some stand alone before I jump into the Empire trilogy.
Going to read Uzumaki, and Brandon Sandersons Secret Project 3.
I’ve been slowly working my way through Gunmetal God’s as well I may try to finish that in earnest as well.
Edge of Darkness by Brent Weeks.
I just couldn’t finish it. Got to the point where Kylar got his hand back and was like okay I guess the story is over now? Felt really weird that there was still around 3/4 of a book left. I just couldn’t bring myself to keep reading after that.
This one is weird for me, I wasn’t drawn into this book as quick as Tress. The world wasn’t as interesting to me as some of his other works. It took me until chapter 28 to finally be invested in the characters (Early Yumi was a Karen imo, and I really don’t like her).
Early book I was only interested in Nikiro’s world the city in eternal darkowas really cool. It kind of puts a damper in my reading experience when 1/2 the pov’s take place in an uninteresting world (Yumi’s, for me was just meh).
I watched “Your Name” with my gf before I started Yumi and the whole time I was like this is a body swap like that. Pretty surprised about it being one of his inspirations I didn’t think Sando watched anime for some reason.
Overall, I give it a 2.5/5 it was okay worth a read for the Cosmere connections but I won’t reread it anytime soon if at all. Better than RoW and Lost Metal but weaker than Emperor’s Soul and Tress. Compared to the other secret projects it’s the middle book so far. Tress>Yumi>Wizard.
I just started The Restaurant at the end of the Galaxy. I’m slowly working my way through the Hitchhiker’s series. First book was good seeing where I’ll end up.
I always found when painting eyes was to paint it black then add the white eye part around it. Easier for me that way and ends up looking less derpy lol. But decent first attempt.
