This week we discuss chapters 41-44. Abandon hope all ye who enter here, says Emily.
FULL STEAM AHEAD, says Meg.

HAPPY 2022! WE MADE IT! Em and Meg start the year off with Chapters 37-40. It’s a little bit of a breather this week. Baby Kal goes to a tense dinner party, present-day Kaladin wrestles with brain lies, and does Shallan and her future father-in-law Dalinar have something in common?

We read chapters 33-36 this week! (Fair warning - there’s a 10 minute chunk where Emily’s audio gets a little crackly but then we fix it!) Shallan is having second thoughts about her secret mission, Kaladin’s day LITERALLY COULD NOT GET WORSE, and Jasnah apparently favors a very…hands on method of teaching. 

We read chapters 29-32 this week. SHALLAN IS BACK, Y’ALL…and hallucinating?!?! Gaz is only SLIGHTLY less awful, baby Kaladin gets a grown-up lesson, and EMILY FLAT OUT REFUSED TO READ THE LAST CHAPTER.

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! Come take a turkey break and listen to us talk about chapter 28 + the Interludes. Dalinar’s men are a little TOO loyal, Emily reveals her OTP, and listen - Emily doesn’t have TIME for all this nonsense. WHERE’S SZETH!?!?

Emily and Meg tackle chapters 25-27. Emily can’t keep her fantasy dads straight, CONSPIRACY THEORIES ABOUND, Kaladin is in Suuuuper denial and Emily did NOT fart live on camera.

In Chapters 22-24 We get to meet another Kholin...NAVANI. Why does she make Dalinar so nervous? Elhokar can't keep his big, fat mouth shut, can he? And are the high princes just literally playing Monopoly?

Emily and Megan go through Chapters 18-21. Adolin takes his girlfriends to the nicest places. Someone is trying to (possibly) kill Elhokar, Meg shares with us the Way of Kings musical and gives us the secret to hot naps while Emily resorts to physical violence.

We read Chapters 15-17 this time around AND EMILY’S RECORDING EQUIPMENT IS THE WORST. (Again. New equipment is imminent. But SUSPICION. SUSPICION EVERYWHERE. Adolin just wants people to stop making fun of his dad. Kaladin just wants his bridge crew to STOP DYING. Who is gonna get what they want first?

In Chapters 12-14 we spend the vast majority of it meeting the rest of the Kholin family and they are a HANDFUL. Just running around fighting monsters for glory and stuff. And Kaladin does NOT endear himself to Bridge Four OR Emily.
