I’m a big fantasy fiction nut. TWOK by Sanderson has been recommended to me countless times. I really enjoyed part one, Kaladin and Shallan’s stories.

The interludes were really tough for me to even be interested in, and now in part 2 it’s just really boring me. Idk should I push through? The story telling of the first part was great and it sucked me in, part 2 is proving to be boring and tedious.

Any thoughts?

    I forced myself through the first book of The Malazan Book of the Fallen. Twice.

    Best decision I ever made with regards to reading books.

      Okay, now that I’ve seen your comment I guess I’m now obligated to try to read this book AGAIN. Thanks a lot

        I didn’t care for Gardens of the Moon until my re-read. So I’d just try to read through the first one and then jump on the second one.

        The second book, Deadhouse Gates was amazing and began my journey through the series.

      Wonderful. It works for some people, with some books.

      It’s never benefited me. And I have read thousands of books over six decades, and tried to read thousands more. And did force myself through at least a hundred before I decided that was enough of that.

        Yeah, to be fair I didn’t like the book that much the second time. But after continuing the series I found the best series of my life, thus far.
