Books of 2026: Mistborn Era 2

I think I already posted about Era 1, but I just finished Era 2 and it was so heartbreaking at the end. This is not the post for spoilers. But there are so many good quotes in there.

Mistborn: The Final Empire

The Hero of Ages

I first read Mistborn almost 20 years ago, after enjoying Elantris a great deal…and I bounced off it HARD. It was such a grim dark world, Vin was insufferable and “not like the other girls” in my eyes, and I just was not here for it.

But this year, I decided I would give them another try; and I’m so glad I did.

Being immersed in the Cosmere means that I was spoiled for most of the major events of the second two books, but that’s okay. I can accept a few spoilers.

I would like to get a marewill flower tattoo, to go with my bannion flower. Perhaps I will have a whole bouquet of literary flowers someday.
