The story overall was good. I’m not sure the framing device you used was necessary. There are a few typos and awkward sentences, but I won’t bother pointing them out unless you would like me to. I feel like you were a bit heavy on getting the “moral” across. It might be better to let Nahim/the reader figure it out on his/their own. The act…[Read more]

I finished Dawnshard. It was pretty good, but since I don’t think anyone else on here has read it yet, I’ll hold my comments.

@esther-c

I think Sef and Chase are basically done talking (so are Liv and Lukas)…so sure!

@esther-c

Yeah, Rylee loves her dog named Bear, and just animals and general XD

I’m not that happy with it for a couple reasons, but it captures pieces of Nahim’s heart rather well.

Here’s another thing I’m wondering about with time dilation: aging.

You might think the answer is simple: negative dilation makes you age slower, and positive dilation makes you age faster. But what causes aging? From my understanding, it’s largely caused by cosmic rays from outer space. Because of that, I think that Positive Dilation will …[Read more]

Sounds like a plan!

…an extremely short snippet of an upcoming chapter in my book…

________

Belle walked along the garden pathway. Each step she took was place in a slow, queen-like manner. Her hourglass body was clothed in one of her purple mermaid dresses, and it sparkled and shined in the morning sun. Gold earrings dangled from her small…[Read more]

I also read the Eleventh Metal and Allomancer Jak. I’m not going to say much about them, because there isn’t much to say.

The Eleventh Metal is one scene long, and it doesn’t have anything particularly useful to say. It’s still fun, but nothing amazing.

Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Etania is even more useless. It’s supposed to be funny, bu…[Read more]

Thank you all for the nice comments and feedback, I’m taking everything into consideration and I’m thankful to have people who are willing to be honest and encouraging

😊

also to answer the most popular question, no this wasn’t the first chapter or anything, so all the characters would be properly introduced in the actual book

Ohh… I see…

Here are my thoughts on Mistborn Secret History. I’ll note from the beginning that I had already been spoiled on most of the important things in this book, and that I’m sure it would have been far more enjoyable if I didn’t know anything beyond Mistborn Era 1 and 2.

There are two big issues that jump out at me. First is that it feels disjo…[Read more]

Okay, so, having read Edgedancer, here are some thoughts on it.

I would say that everything in it was just decent. Decent character development, decent plot, et. There isn’t too much to say. For me having already read OB and RoW, it wasn’t particularly enjoyable, because everything in it was stuff I could piece together pretty easily. You…[Read more]

@rae

Aww, that’s so sweet of Chase <3

Sef

Chase smiled, and it made her heart skip a beat.

No. 

I am not falling for him. 

I’m not. 

But he smiled again, and she knew it was hopeless.

She was falling fast.

For Christmas, I got Arcanum Unbounded, Dawnshard, and Elantris. So far I read the entire Scadrial section of Arcanum Unbounded, as well as Edgedancer. I am a few chapters into Dawnshard. I’ll post my thoughts on each of them as I finish them (but I’m not gonna start till tomorrow.)

@whalekeeper

Nar

Nar laughed.

“Looks like fun!”

@trailblazer

Thou was originally the English second person singular, while you was the plural. You has replaced thou and is now is used for both, so we’re trying to bring thou back lol

@trailblazer

Ohhh, okay.

@grcr

Thanks!!!

Here’s another one, Rylee’s little sister, Audrey:
