Tress of the Emerald Sea

loved the fairytale-esque unravelling of the story. and overall a really wonderful journey supported by both progression of the story itself and the progression in characters/relationships. i also always enjoy references to other characters/lore in the cosmere no matter how subtle.

(4.5/5)

???Hon, no man is worth getting killed over,??? the rat said. ???If you manage to escape, you should head on home to your rock.???

“dirty socks aren???t an acceptable strainer for pasta, and if that???s true, I do not want to think about it.”

“At this point in the story, I was concerned with trying to figure out how many different shades of orange I could wear at the same time.”

“We just remember it that way because it???s comforting. Beyond that, memories have a way of changing on us. Souring or sweetening over time???like a brew we drink, then recreate later by taste, only getting the ingredients mostly right. You can???t taste a memory without tainting it with who you have become.”

“Don???t wake me up unless Death himself has shown up, nails in his eyes. Even then, see if you can stall.”
