Notes -
Just today finished Dawnshard by Brandon Sanderson. Unfortunately it was probably my least favorite work of his so far. I could tell right from the get-go that it would be extremely gentle towards the main character, a wheelchair-bound woman named Rysn. She was a fine character but it was fairly clear from the start that she would never fail or struggle much, a suspicion which unfortunately proved correct. The closest thing to character growth in the book was one character realizing that their (very, very mild) teasing occasionally hurt others' feelings. With emotional stakes so shallow, no wonder I didn't get invested.
I don't regret reading it though; I found it only a bit worse than the litRPG trash I usually occupy myself with.
