The last time I remember being this pumped for a book release was back in the day when Harry Potter was coming out. 💙
Same!
Yes!! You're so right.
Yup! I’m taking two days off of work Tuesday and Wednesday to read it 😁😁
Same here
Man i didn't even realize that this was true until I saw it written down
"The most important step a man can take. It's not the first one, is it? It's the next one. Always the next step, Dalinar." 💙
Been watching you for a while now! So excited for the release, thanks for another great video!! 💙

I’m so happy you got an arc! I’m so pumped for Rhythm of War💙
You're the sweetest! I'm very happy you're including international winners for ppl, they normally get missed out on. You're very considerate and kind and it shines thru. I just started reading Warbreaker and I have only read Mistborn previously. I loved Mistborn and want to continue series. Happy 📚 📖! 💙
Ah! That's so wonderful of you to do! 💙 I've been looking forward to RoW ever since 2017.
Thank you - your review was exactly what I was looking for! 💙
This was so great! As someone who avoids unfinished series I was so happy to find out it would be two arcs. Plus this series is GREAT for rereading 🙌🏼 I’m so glad I’m doing my book diary videos bc they will help me refresh my memory for future releases 😆
It is literally 2.00. in the morning here in Kenya and I’m so happy I caught this video. Kenya- 🧡 Getting this copy would make me so happy because, well, Cosmere books are barely sold here and I really like having actual copies rather than reading the Kindles. Anyway, way to be tight lipped about getting an ARC! You deserve it girl.
Thank you 💖 It was hard not to say anything, but I didn’t want to make anyone feel bad!
@@ebnovels Oh Elle, you have to be one of the nicest people on the planet. From all your giveaways to now this! In everything you do, even when you’re miserable(enter appendicitis), you do your best not to make others feel bad. The world could use more considerate people like you.
@@henrywayne5724 rockss!! 😎 🤘
Portugal 🧡 thanks for your content! You've helped me choose soo many books, you're reviews are so comprehensive and I can't wait to read this new entry of the series
I loved you're review! I'm so excited to read it 💙
“You can not take my pain” chills. Every. Time. I know you don’t care too much for Dalinar but You can’t deny the epic Ness of that story ark😁💙
And "I will protect those I hate. Even if the one I hate most is myself." Gets me every time.
@@TheEldarie ah, Teft. Great moment. And, yeah, f**ck Moash.
@@charlestruppi7793 I mean I hate him too but you can totally understand where he’s coming from
He's the s*** IMO such a lifelike character very believe able in his actions and bearing!
The life of Brandon Sanderson’s Brazilian fans is so difficult, because we only got the book long after the release ... but we are still here ☺️ Brazil 🧡
Omg so hard to find his books here
Here in México is the same. There's Nova that translates de books but the wait so we can afquire it here is insane (Nova is from spain)... The good thing is that Nova will release the book in spanish simultaneously so the wait will be shorter
I feel like I have been waiting so long for this release. I am so excited! 💙
I'm super excited. The preview chapters have been so good! 💙
Just got my friend into the Cosmere, he started with Mistborn. Can't wait to talk about Stormlight with him! - Australia 🧡
So many people from so many different countries entering, i feel like dalinar is not only trying to unite people within the books but sanderson is actually succeeding to unite people outside of them xD in conversation, sharing interests etc. wonderful! Thanks for bringing this community together via your videos :D
I am so excited to read this book, so pleased for you that you got a copy as you give great reviews. Thanks for the rundown! UK 🧡
This was a great video! I liked what you said about mental health in regards to these books, too. Well done! And thanks for the Stormalong shoutout, you’re so kind!
I'm so happy you got a free copy! That's exciting I can't wait to hear your thoughts in the future 😎
"Hey Goncho!" Best character. 💙
"don't over use it naco"
XD
I love you channel. Thank you for being so generous 💙
Thank you for channel. You lead me to Sanderson books and I love them. Keep up with the great work and I look forward to more videos 💙
I literally just finished Mistborn last night and loved it! I'm already reading The Way of Kings and I'm definitely planning to read the rest of the series. Love from the Philippines! 🧡
Stormlight archive has a unique place in my heart. It feels different every time you read it. I love all work of Sanderson, but love stormlight archive the most. From India. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I love your reviews! I have found so many books that I LOVE in the fantasy realm from your channel. Thank you for all of the content! 💙
Love your channel, you have such a lovely personality! Great recap!! 💙

I just read the first 3 this year. They had helped me a lot this year. "I will protect even those I hate, even if the one I hate most is myself." Greetings from México🧡
Thanks Elliot! So excited for rhythm of war!!💙
Love your reviews from and LOVE the stormlight archive 💙 Big fan from Finland :D
So excited for this book, just finished my second read through of this series and loved it even more than my first. United Kingdom 🧡
I cannot wait. I knew this would be a big book after I saw that the audible version was 57 hours long. Hello from the UK, waiting with bated breath. ❤️
I've loved your book reviews, so jealous you guys got the books early! 💙
Super pumped for this book! Thanks for the great video! 💙
My brother just finished Oathbringer getting this would be such a perfect Christmas gift!!! Love from India 🧡🧡🧡
I love the world of books so much. I got reading as a hobby a year ago because my friend constantly forced me to read her favourite book. And then after I have read over 30 books. People generally do not encourage you, here in India, to read novels. Especially for teen like me who is in 15 -17 old. All assume we students must learn word to word all our school books, sit 10 hours at one place studying, get out of marks. And in this all jumble I never touched a single novel. Boks give wisdom which is greater than bookish knowledge I think. Sanderson is one of my favourite author. I read his books, especially way of kings, because of recommendations of you all book tubers. I am now waiting for the new chapter to come of RoW on Sanderson's channel. I always try to encourage my friends and family members to read books. Because, I think, reading books is a way to relax our mind busy life we live. I always want someone with me to discuss the events in the book but I have no one in my friend circle who shares common interest in reading. That one friend I said who forced me to read book, she reads mythology which I do not prefer to read because I love fantasy in with there is completely different world. Here too, you are a great help Elliot. I love to listen what you and all other people think on a perticular book which I like too. From india🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
If your friend is open to all kinds of mythology, then you two could maybe bond over "Circe" or "The Song of Achilles" by Madelline Miller. It's not (Greek) mythology in its purest form, but it has that appeal nonetheless.
@@nicholaus3248 I hope that was the case dear. She is not open to all mythology books and nor i am to all fantasy books. She merely have 2to 3 series written by Amish tripathi an indian author. And thanks for recommendation, i will try to read it.
@@meeramarwade Ah well, it was worth a shot. "Circe" is one of my favorite books of the year, but it certainly isn't for everyone. A lot more ponderous, a lot less action, more... _intentionally lyrical_ than Sanderson's works and the like.
@@nicholaus3248 it seems interesting. Ill read it if possible
Yeh U r right
I love how you brought up the mental health themes in the Stormlight Archive. While those themes are present, they are not often discussed. Thank you for bringing a compassionate view to your viewers by encouraging them to approach the books based on their comfort levels. 💙
Thank you for helping us with the trail on how to read Brandon Sanderson, I really found it useful. I only discovered Brandon Sanderson this year and he has really grown on me especially after he started to be more active on his KZhead channel, I think he’s a lovely guy. Of course you helped tremendously as well, I really like the flow of your videos, they resonate with me so easily. I appreciate you saying that we shouldn’t feel as we’re missing the hype if we don’t get to the new release now, this truly needs to be said more to remind us that the journey is important and each can take his time. I will do so myself, I finalized the first 2 Mistborn books and I will slowly go thought your recommended trail; who knows, I might catch up until the next release, which would be perfectly splendid! Romania 🧡
“Inappropriate?” Pattern said. “Such as . . . dividing by zero?” Canada 🧡
That moment makes me laugh so hard every time I read Oathbringer 🤣.
@@patrickhill8494 that and when kal tells Syl to do something and she salutes him and is like "Yes sir captain sir radiant sir!"
One of my absolute favorite lines! 💙💙💙
I'm so hyped for this book, considering it's Sanderson it can't disappoint! Serbia.🧡
Thanks for the video! What a nice bright spot in an otherwise challenging year :) 💙
I have been waiting for this so long. So excited for the the next Sanderson. Love yout channel too. Germany 🧡
There are 692 comments right now. Probability is dead, but I'll see what I can do. Spain 🇪🇸🧡
never lose hope.
@@abdulazizh2881 Thanks, bridgeman
Lo bueno es que Nova lanzará el libro simultáneamente en español!! Aunque aquí se tardará un poco en llegar en especial por el covid 😔 México 🇲🇽♥️
@@august4471 Igualmente si no me toca lo compraré en inglés. Los otros tres los tengo en inglés
Pensaba que era el único de España por aquí xD
Can’t wait to get my hand on this book, the last time I’ve been so exited for a written story was when the bible was published. Greetings from Italy🧡
Hell yes. I thought it was crazy when they decided to release the Bible only one chapter a week. Some pretty big cliffhangers in there
@@talldaveh Yo man you are one of the oldest fan out there. Good for you. I just got into it from the Gutenberg print release so I'm sort of a newbie.
Keep up the amazing literary analysis and exploration! Thanks for keeping up conversation on this series :) 💙
I'm so excited for this book! And I love your book reviews 💙!!
So hyped for Rhythm of War!!! “Journey before destination” Spain🧡
Even though I have not quite made it yet to Rhythm of War, I'm currently enjoying my first read of Way of Kings and I can't wait for what the future holds :) Wish you all the best Elliot :D Slovakia 🧡
Hey! You still reading?
@@nameless5053 Oh hell yeah :D with college and all that tho it's been hard to get back into it (and into reading generally), but I'm excited for Edgedancer as that's the next book in my Stormlight Archive bucket list :D
@@janhavrilak1596 :) are you reading edgedancer after WoR? I'm on Warbreaker, and will start WoR after finishing it. Then edgedancer...
@@nameless5053 Yep, I've decided to start with something more light-hearted before submerging myself into the intricacies of the main story in Oathbringer. But I've been eyeing Warbreaker myself too, so I hope you have fun :)
@@janhavrilak1596 I see...have you read mistborn? I heard that before Rhythm of War, one should read mistborn and most of the other cosmere books. Although, I'm not sure if I'll be able to take that long break between Oathbringer and Rhythm of War, since reading that many books in-between will take much time, especially considering I'm a slow reader...
Thanks for the candid review 💙
This was a perfect refresher! Thank you :) 💙
Having read oathbringer last month , really excited for rhythm of war. I have convinced a lot of my friends to read Brandon Sanderson here in INDIA. BTW, love your videos. May God help me. From INDIA 🧡🧡
Me too

This is such a kind giveaway! I am actually just jumping into Stormlight, and your love of it has been a really big reason for my journey through the Cosmere this year 💙
Your videos always are so sweet and thoughtful and it shows just how much you care about your audience and it’s always a nice thing to watch. 💙
After reading Dawnshard, it’s obvious that the “you don’t need to read the other books” is going to get less and less true as SA moves forward.
Yes for sure. One of the Rhythm of War chapters released already shows that you should read Warbreaker for SA.
"Ha !! Airsick lowlander." Damn I love Rock. India 🧡
Thank you!!! Super pumped to read this 💙
I started reading the series in 2019. It was my best reading year to be honest and I've been obsessed ever since! 😍 Also, watching you talk about The Stormlight Archive with such passion is always a blast! Love from Iran 🧡
I have just purchased the way of kings. Anything i need to know going into it? 💙li have enough to buy the next two which i will do, and having the fourth one would be amazing. I love you thanks for the great vids
I just read it recently and loved it! I guess just keep in mind that it's a slow start but totally worth it
The start can be alittle confusing, but the payoff is incredible!
I actually have a whole video about getting into it! Here’s the link 💕 kzhead.info/sun/fdqImsqZbKKqqKs/bejne.html
@@ebnovels thank you so much
Oh stormfather! I'm desperately waiting for the release. But Preorder is not available in india. I just finished reading oathbringer a month ago. Such a mind blowing work, oh my god! India🧡
I’m so excited for RoW. Love all of your videos! 💙
You are so sweet to do this giveaway. I am just now starting these books and I am so excited! 💙
"Hey, no mating!" - Pattern 🤣 Serbia 🧡
It is so difficult to purchase stormlight archive in my country INDIA. 🧡🧡 I am a big Sanderson fan. I think if Sanderson books are promoted in india well then it will surely reach the popularity of harry Potter. Looking forward to a gift 🎁 from the best booktuber around. FROM INDIA 🧡🧡🧡 This gift would surely make my birthday SPECIAL. 🧡🧡🧡
The US edition won't be available for a while. The UK edition is available on Amazon and Kindle right now.
I started reading Sanderson books because of your recommendations and they have been an amazing place to scape this year. Thank you so much for being a source of information, inspiration and entertainment despite your difficult year. You are the best Elliot! Love from Mexico 🧡
Omg I LITERALLY can't wait to read this book! This video is making the wait for the book so much easier and so much harder!!! Love the video thanks💙

Thank you for providing a suggested reading order. I’ve never read any of Sanderson’s works and now I know where I’ll begin. Also, glad to hear you’re doing well after your surgery. 💙
It's so difficult to buy Brandon Sanderson's books here in my country, Philippines.🧡
“The most important words a man can say are, “I will do better.” 💙
That's really, really offensive and sexist.
I cannot WAIT for this book! So excited you got a copy already! 💙
You have brought love back to the book tube world! I am new to Brandon Sanderson because of you! His work is amazing and cannot wait to grow my collection! 💙
"I am a stick!" - A Stick 💙
The first book that I read by Sanderson was "The way of Kings" 😂. I directly started with that one after I saw a video of you gushing about it. It did not disappoint! Now that I've read the other books in the cosmere, I reread stormlight archive and it was so so sooooo much cooler!!! India 🧡
Sameeeeeeee after WoK I jumped into Mistborn
I love your channel and Brandon Sanderson. Thank you for doing this giveawa💙
Looking forward to reading this one 💙Keep up the great work.
Gosh. She’s super cute.

So excited for this release. 💙
You are the sweetest for all.of your giveaways! 💙 Thanks for the wrap up - I read 1-3, Edgedancer and Warbreaker this summer ... And already feel like I've forgotten too much to catch the Easter eggs. Too many characters shortly after finishing Wheel of Time too. 😂 Now, to start Dawnshard!
Love your channel, can't wait for RoW!💙
Great vid! Love this series. 💙
Started my journey with Sanderson’s books this year with Elantris and Warbreaker and now I’m almost done with The Way of Kings and absolutely loving it, can’t wait to continue on with the series!! It’s always heartwarming to hear you talk about books you love Elliot and I’m so happy for you that you got an ARC 😊 Much love from Portugal 🧡
