Content warning Cosmere Spoilers
I absolutely loved the Secret project book #1, it was filled with really neat explorations of the Aethers - you get small exposure to a lot of different Cosmere magic systems.
Absolutely worth reading.
Loved it, probably my favorite stand-alone book of Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere! Interesting world building and beautiful artwork.
This was a really fun, short novel. A bit of a romantic adventure, but with classic Sanderson world-building and quirky characters. You can certainly see some of the covid influences, from the fear of airborne spores to tablet communication devices. The plot is straightforward and told in an interesting style with a whimsical narrator that talks to the reader and frequently drops fascinating Cosmere links or foreshadows story events. Overall this was a good book and a great start to the year of Sanderson.
