I’ve spent^Wwasted the last 150 days of my life reading The Stormlight Archive (up to, and including, part 4), and it’s been the greatest waste of time and brain cycles in a long time.
The tl;dr: whenever something inexplicable happens, the author will simply invent a new plot twist/random magic. I do expect the series to end with a “remarkable” finish, but only because it’s predictable based on the first book.
Don’t read it. Not worth it.

(and yeah, my bad for not being able to stop reading half-way through, but I always tend to think “the problem is me, not the author. this must end well, I just don’t get it yet”)
