#Cosmerebuddyread Wow. Sanderson has done it again- just when I think I know where the story is heading, he does something completely unexpected that I never see coming. That ending made me immediately go and purchase the next book. Can‘t wait for our group‘s next few discussions but I couldn‘t help but finish early! Thank goodness for our buddy read so I am not alone with this! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

JacqMac I am trying really hard to go slowly. But I want to finish it so badly. He surprised me again. lol 12h

DogMomIrene I put this one down so I could read a few other books, kind of a catch up. But I‘m diving back into this one tonight. I‘m so freaking excited! 12h

Happy Tuesday! I can‘t wait to move on to the next part, because I really have no idea where this story is heading now. And I have some concerns.

Meshell1313 Yes ok soo we at least know who the journal belongs to but we still don‘t know who the imposter is? And do we talk about Vin and Zane? Ugh. 4d

JacqMac @Meshell1313 Vin and Zane are one of my concerns. lol 4d

rabbitprincess I had a feeling that Elend would not be re-voted king but was not sure of who would replace him. So hurray for being ahead of a cliffhanger for once, sort of 😆 4d

Leniverse @Meshell1313 I tried to keep track of who has been eliminated in the hunt for the imposter, and I wonder who I have forgotten. Or if it's going to be some nameless servant nobody ever notices. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 3d

JacqMac @rabbitprincess 😂 3d

JacqMac @Leniverse it‘s starting to look like it‘s someone insignificant. I‘m not sure if that disappoints me or not. 3d

Leniverse Yeah, I'll be happy not to lose any more major characters, but at the same time it seems anticlimactic if it's someone we've not even met. And I don't trust Sanderson not to sucker punch us 😒 3d

Went to the movies yesterday. There was a bookstore nearby, so I decided to continue stocking up for the #CosmereBuddyRead 😂 I am OBSESSED @JacqMac 😄

JacqMac 😂 Nice! 4d

rabbitprincess @JacqMac The only books I won‘t have to buy are books 4, 5 and 6 of Mistborn (The Alloy of Law etc.) because Tor.com offered them as free ebooks a while back 😄 4d

Happy Tuesday! Now I can read the next part. lol Just when I think he can‘t surprise me, he surprises me. I can‘t wait to hear what you all think about the reveal of the Watcher. I think I like where it‘s going.

Leniverse I quite enjoyed learning more about how the Keepers use their powers. Especially how charging a metal mind doesn't have to be a hardship, it can be useful like making your body lighter for climbing or dulling your sense of smell when something reeks. 2w

Meshell1313 Ok so now that we know who the watcher is- can Zane be persuaded to join their cause??? 2w

Meshell1313 @Leniverse I know! A coup!!!! Amazing! What will our heroes do now???? 2w

Meshell1313 @JacqMac I agree with you about Sanderson- I often feel like I am being lulled into a false sense of security but then he‘ll do something to shock me! 2w

Leniverse @Meshell1313 Regarding the Watcher, I just hope we don't end up in a YA style love triangle! 2w

JacqMac @Leniverse I love and hate the cliffhangers. Lol I agree about the YA romance. I like that he has been keeping the romance to a minimum. 2w

JacqMac @Meshell1313 I keep wondering which way Zane is going to go. 2w

Meshell1313 @Leniverse @JacqMac totally agree! I‘m invested in Vin and Elend even though it‘s not the main focus of the story. I‘m finding the stories so unique- whenever I think I have it figured out he flips the switch! 1w

rabbitprincess I totally agree that Sanderson has a way with cliffhangers! 1w

The downside to reading on Kindle. That's the zoomed in version of the map 🧐 I guess I'll just create my own headcanon map for where everything is in relation to each other, because I can't even make out what places are marked on the map - much less where they are 🤪

I almost forgot it‘s Tuesday. It was really hard to stop reading after part one. Is everyone caught up? I can‘t wait to hear what your theories are on this one. And I‘m excited to read more. #CosmereBuddyRead

Meshell1313 Ok I‘m hooked again! Here‘s my many questions as usual: Now whose journal are we getting in the beginning of each chapter? And who is the watcher? Also- glad we got clarification on the Kandra but GROSS!🤢 3w

JacqMac @Meshell1313 I have the very same questions. I also want to know who the imposter is. It could be anyone. 2w

Meshell1313 @JacqMac yessss! I need them to narrow down the choices. I‘m thinking it‘s someone close- in their little gang- for sure. 2w

Jess861 I've fallen behind once again, lol. I grabbed it off the bookcase but haven't started it yet. Hopefully I have a bit more time to read this week - I spent most of my evenings this week helping the kiddos with the gazillion Valentines cards they needed to do for school. 2w

rabbitprincess I‘m excited that there‘s a NEW METAL! Duralumin seems to be quite a tricky one to burn. I nearly cheered out loud on the bus when reading the scene where Vin rescued Breeze. And this business with the kandra feels a bit like a closed-circle murder mystery, so I am very much intrigued. 2w

rabbitprincess Also, a slight sad trombone moment for me at the part where Vin and Elend were talking about Kelsier and Vin described Kelsier as “ancient” at the age of 38 😂😅 That means I will be “ancient plus one” this year 🥲 2w

Leniverse Alright, I'm caught up! And fortunately, since I started late, I can just continue into part 2. Because what a way to end part one 😳 2w

Leniverse @rabbitprincess If 38 is ancient, then I suppose I have reached "old crone". I might as well get a walking stick and start hitting people with it if they get in my way. ? 2w

JacqMac @Leniverse Yay!! Part 2 is also hard to put down. lol I might be pasted the crone stage at this point. What comes after crone? 2w

repost for @JacqMac:

This one is a bit longer and it has six parts. But part 6 is quite short, so I‘m combining it with part 5. If it‘s anything like Book 1, it shouldn‘t be a problem to read them both together anyway. lol As always, if it‘s too much and you think we need changes, let me know. If anyone else wants to join us, feel free, I will gladly add you to the tag list. #CosmereBuddyRead

I read this book 4 years ago and just read it for a second time for the #CosmereBuddyRead. If anyone knows me, you know that I don't remember anything about it if it was longer than a few months ago, 😆! I loved it just as much as the first. The descriptive world, using metals as powers and even though it's fantasy, it feels like this world could exist. It is easy to follow for those of us that aren't as much into fantasy as others.

Elizabeth2 My memory is the same. 😂 This is one of my bonus daughter‘s favorites - fav author and fav series. She loaned me her copy and it was so well-worn. It‘s her comfort re-read. ❤️ 3w

DogMomIrene Feeling like this world could really exist - so true! I kept wondering if they were on Earth, but then I was nah, it‘s a planet similar to ours, but not actually Earth…unless I‘m wrong. Sanderson actually has an FAQ about the Earth question on his website. I guess that‘s a downside of writing a world that feels so real! 3w

Jess861 @Elizabeth2 Hopefully it sticks with her as a comfort read into adulthood! I still have the books I enjoyed when I was younger that I comfort read. 3w

Jess861 @DogMomIrene - Not yet, definitely could be a world full of ash and mist down the line though - we just won't have any powers to survive it 😆! 3w

DogMomIrene @Jess861 True! 3w

CozyBookworm I‘m not (typically) into fantasy, but one of my students talked me into reading this and I‘m hooked! 2w
