Do you read non-cosmere works? For me, beside WOT, I tend not to read non-cosmere works by Brandon Sanderson.

What about you?

I do! The Skyward books and The Rithmatist are a lot of fun

I LOVE the Reckoners trilogy, and the Alcatraz series is hilarious :laugh: I love the last one that just came out :D

I REALLY loved The Rithmatist! The Reckoners, Alcatraz and Stephen Leeds series were all fun too. Skyward was harder for me because I don't read as much sci-fi but also enjoyable (still need to read Cytonic though).

Okay I'm just a fan of almost anything Sanderson writes.

I have not read any non-Cosmere stuff, but I really want to read Skyward!

I struggled with Skyward too, I'm not that much of a sci-fi fan. I had to force myself to get through Cytonic. The three other smaller stories are also on my to-read list, but they keep getting pushed down :look:

This thread reminded me to update the bibliography thread I have stickied.

I skimmed right over the sticky threads in here...that is super informative and a very nice, simple way of viewing all the things.

I actually haven't read any of the Cosmere novels, but I've been meaning to get around to it now that I've finished WOT. I have read Alcatraz, The Rithmatist, The Reckoners, and my personal favorite, Skyward. My friends say I'm a real-life M-Bot, and I'm just going to take that as a compliment. *Resigned sigh* I really identify with Spensa, because my dream in life is to join NASA's Artemis program and be one of the first humans to set foot on Mars.

I want to read Skyward at some point but that would be a far way off since my reading stack is pretty damn high still. I did start listening to the audio book for Frugal Wizard but never finished it because I thought it was incredibly boring

Very much so.

I adored Skyward! I'm not as into sci-fi as fantasy but it was really fantastic and kept me guessing!

Frugal Wizard was probably my least favorite of the secret projects and possibly my least favorite Sanderson thing, but I didn't find it unpleasant necessarily.

Frugal Wizard's story just didn't have anything interesting about it and it's build is way too slow for what feels like not a lot happening. He just wasn't on the ball with that one
