I greatly enjoy Sanderson's world building, characters, observations on life via his fantasy world. Characters like Lift are not my favorite, but I appreciated her growth in this book.

I was hesitant before reading this as I saw many bad reviews of people who strongly disliked Lift. From what we saw of her in WoR I would have agreed that she simply wasn’t a likable character, which is okay as not all characters can or should be. But reading this novella changed my mind about her and I think if she is to become a major character like Sanderson said he intends her to be, then reading this is a great insight to who she is and who she will eventually become. We get see a part of her we didn’t see in WoR. Yes she has the same attitude and makes a lot of mistakes, but she is just a kid trying to find her way as a person and as a Radiant. I think that’s important for people to remember to really appreciate her character and not judge her too harshly. She is a kid, and will act like one. Overall I enjoyed reading about her, it was fun and I’m glad I didn’t skip this so I could fully appreciate the storm light archive and all its characters, even though it wasn’t necessary.
