If you’re wondering about my vocal chords:
I've injured my vocal chords and for the next 8 weeks i can't be loud at all or scary things can happen to my throat. I’ve had a sore throat every day since last october and doctors couldnt figure out what was wrong with me and it never got better and I finally saw the right kind of doctor [for your vocal health] and she found out what was wrong and told me this is how i have to fix it. 5 WEEKS LEFT.

"i think I did something bad,,," "I killed Lady Shan." "She was mistborn. We fought. I won"
Mistborn is my favourite trilogy of all time! The series gets better and better as it goes on, the third book is mind blowing.
ShaelinWrites can’t wait!!! Just finished the first one.
I personally loved when Vin snapped at them and told them how they were noble men without titles because they had never lived the life of a skaa.
"The fact that [Reen] had died for her... really touched me...
Now let's talk about Yeden for a second. THAT FU**ING IDIOT WHO..."
Dying XD
Breeze is definitely my favourite along with Kelsier. I love how he just told Spook/Lestibournes "I have no idea what you just said, child. So I'm going to pretend that you're coherent and move on." Fav moment as well haha!
Breeze was the fancy looking sassy son of a bitch friend we all wanna have
When Sazed saved Vin and basically turned into Hulk I put the book down for a minute and sat there like, "What just happened."
It was the weirdest thing to picture in my head... But I loved that part, it was so badass. This is why Sazed is my favourite character from Mistborn, there are so many fascinating sides to his development. One day he's a devoted and disciplined stewart, the next one he's a super fucking smart scholar, the next one he's a freaking giant punching his way out of the palace of God himself. Love him
I was so happy in that moment!!!!
I can't believe you didn't mention Sazed :( I like him
Totally agreed!! Just finished, he’s a beast and knowing who the lord ruler turns out to be at the end makes Sazed even more intriguing.
I was suspicious of him but at the end I felt so bad... i love sazed now
Spook confused me. lol I was like, am I suppose to be able to understand what he is saying??
You haven't said anything about Sazed!! I love him to pieces.
I'm almost finished with The Hero of Ages now. I hope you continue this trilogy right away! There are so many mysteries and plot twists ahead of you :) I really want to hear your reaction to them.
And if you loved the characters in the first book, prepare to freaking adore them in the next ones.
*SPOILERY COMMENT*
I just finished this yesterday... I was all proud because I was like "I guessed who was narrating the italics correctly!" before they found the logbook and lolnooooope but I LOVED THAT TWIST SO MUCH HOLY LAWD
Also, like a lot of other people are saying, Sazed was my fave. (Though "Saze" as a nickname for Sazed doesn't work in my head because I don't read Sazed as Say-zed, so that was kind of annoying.) Kelsier is a close second.
Speaking of Kelsier, stupid Kelsier and his stupid sentimental letter to Vin. He thought of her as his daughter and he would tell Mare all about her and my heart cannot take it.
If Mistborn is 97%, how will you rate Stormlight Archive? 147%?
Stormlight Archive is 300% !! So amazing!!!!
it's over 9000! (:
Ive just finished final empire and wow if this didnt just blow my expectations through the roof
Wait... isn't the book called The Final Empire? I thought Mistborn was the name of the whole saga.
Mistborn: The Final Empire
so i guess you can just call it mistborn
nommernomz Yeah, but here she never mentions the name The Final Empire, and apparently it doesn't even say it in that cover, which confused me. I have it in ebook format and in its cover its called The Final Empire: Mistborn 1.
Mistborn FE is only used in the UK/other regions. Mistborn is the actual title of the book. And it is the Mistborn trilogy because it revolves around the Mistborn.
God, this series. You should let your voice heal before your Hero of Ages booktalk, though. I really want to hear you scream about how perfect it is and how amazingly everything fits. :D
IKR
Was I the only one that thought Elend was bad news THE ENTIRE TIME. Like, it was just like, "Ohhh, I like this gu-WAIT NOT DON'T LIKE HIM YOU CAN'T LIKE HIM." Smh....
This was my first Brandon Sanderson book :D I started reading and just couldn't stop ( I read all of his books :D Finished the last one today).
I think you will enjoy the next Mistborn books as well...they get better and better
@Catherine Langenkamp 😁
It's so interesting as someone who's read the whole series hearing theories of people who've just finished the first one, I can't even remember what my theories were, probably because I went straight into the well of Ascension and didn't give myself time to theorise. (Also ATIUM not ATRIUM... Sorry. It's probably another her-my-one situation)
I has seen this book on the shelves in my library for ages but I never picked it up because the cover made it look like a really cliche LOTR type fantasy book (it was the Dutch cover so it looked different to the one you have) but I finally picked it up and
HOLY!
SHIT!
It's so good wtf! I love it so much aaaaahh I'm really not capable of coherently expressing my feelings rn but holy shit!
Sazed was lit 🔥
Has Christine ever given a book an 100%?
I don't think so; the closest any book has gotten that she had read was The 5th Wave which got a 99%
She's given Harry Potter and the Infernal Devices 100%
Oh yeah...sorry I forgot about that
my fev character is sazed
+Saudi gucci me too!
me too!
Have you read Way of Kings? I've read it four times. It's one of the best books I've read in a very long time.
OMG YOU AS A MARSH I LOVE IT
Ok, so, watching your review of this book was amazing for me. You really managed to express the INTENSE FEELINGS I was feeling while reading it. So, I've been suffering from severe burnout for a few years and haven't been able to actually read books for... three years maybe? And this book was the first one I found myself being able to just finish. Took me about a week. And then I kept going with The Well of Ascension (bit slower) and The Hero of Ages (took a weekend), and then The Alloy of Law. And just... OH MY GOD IT'S SO GOOD. THEY'RE SO GOOD. AAAAAH.
Thank you.
Also, it was really fun to hear you speculate on the other books when I'd already read them. SO GOOD.
did anyone else see a similarity in relationship with Daenerys and Viserys and Vin and Reen up until the end?
You had me sold at captain jack sparrow + ironman. Oh my gosh, YES.
Plus literally every single booktuber I follow has raved about this book/trilogy so it looks like it's about that time I go ahead and buy it now!!!!!!! :D
Bless. This whole video I could tell you were trying SO HARD NOT TO YELL.
But yes ALL THE THINGS ALL OF THEM.
Don't even try and make predictions on this series. Not only will they all be wrong but this series will eventually be part of a 35+ book "Cosmers" that connects multiple series with connecting characters and story lines.
You know I got this Audible book a while ago and it's been sitting in my library not listened. So after watching this video and seeing your crazy excitement levels and hype, I am now going to listen to it. All 24 hours & 45 mins of narration haha.
Best part of Christine doing book talks? She dresses up!
The first book was so amazing!!! Elend and Vin are the best coulpe EVER!!
I love your videos so much, Christine. They make my day! My favorite is the mourning period video. :)
it gets better
No spoilers, but Sanderson is going to be releasing 3 more trilogies for the Mistborn franchise!
Don't worry all of your questions will be answered. Promise. But seriously read the next two books, shit goes down. Sanderson is the first author where I literally could not predict what was going to happen. Every time I thought I had it figured out I was extremely wrong. Never had that problem before lol
Read the stormlight archives! its even better than mistborn and the best thing is that it takes place in the same universe
Currently listening to this series in the lazy ole audio book format, really really good. The magic system is really deep and original and kinda believable too which isn't something you'de generally say about a "magic system". What I mean is I bought it, not like some stuff. The characters are cool, the pacing is good. I'de recommend it for sure. This is the first Brandon Sanderson book I've been exposed to I hope his other stuff is just as good, anyone recommend any in particular?
You should read the way of kings!! So good! I have'nt read the mistborn series yet but if they are anything like the way of kings OMG one of the best books i've ever read. Beware the amount of pages over 1000 but so worth it!! Never a dull moment!
The graphic audio version is even better than the regular audiobook version. Check it out 🤟🏻
is this channel gonna be reading other books in the Cosmere by Brandon Sanderson? Cause if so I'm really really excited for future videos
Ugh I loved this video, you talked about EVERYTHING I was thinking about whille reading the book.
I JUST FINISHED IT AND YES YES YESSSSSSSSAAAHHHHH
I definitely will be making a book review of it tomorrow AH
Favourite characters: Sazed, Kelsier, Elend. BUT I ACTUALLY adore them all, all the crew.
I can't tell you the extent of the warm fuzziness I got when Kelsier put his arm around Vin.
I just finished reading Mistborn and Oh My God this book is amazing and now I need to read every Brandon Sanderson book.
I LOVED this book so much! I had so many theories about this book and aaah it was just so awesome. All the characters were so interesting and so well defined. I think that Vin can use allomancy and feruchemy, like the Lord Ruler. I AM SO EXCITED TO READ THE NEXT TWO BOOKS!
I've been waiting for your booktalk ever since I finished Mistborn a couple weeks ago because I needed to know what you thought about it!! :) I completely agreed with you on everything! I need to read the next two books ASAP!
I've just finished it and there was so much going on I can't even talk about it. It was so good!!!
imagine this girl on coffee
I just finished reading this book and I can safely say that this is one of my favorite reads of this year AAAH. loved it so much!
Your channel is so underrated! More people need to love you!
You gave it 97%?! What was wrong with it that made it lose 3%?!?! the book is perfection!
I loved the book but after watching your video I think I love it even more :D Your excitement is contagious!
I CANT WAIT UNTIL YOU READ THE SECOND BOOK YOU LEARN SO MUCH OMG.
I literally just finished the audiobook for this, and OMG! I cried at three separate points. My favorite parts are the talk between Kelsier and Vin after Elend rebukes her but she saves him anyway, and the ending scene between Vin and Elend. My favorite characters in order are Kelsier, Vin, And Elend.
Your book talks at so much fun to watch!
Lol "atrium". It's atium sweetheart.
I wasn't being condescending. Just friendly. I apologize if I came across that way. Also, I made that comment MONTHS ago, so I don't see the point in commenting in it now.
Don't be. (:
+PushingDaisies h
it's also not "Mist Raths"... :)
😂
I love how excited you get about books haha its fantastic! I need to readdddd
Haha "wasing" every time spook said something I had to reread it to see if I could interpret it. Love how excited you are for this book.
i love how natural you were acting in this. alot calmer then user
I loved experiencing the court balls and the heist planning, but the magic combat was hard for me to follow and ultimately reduced my enjoyment of this book. I'm unsure if I should continue. Do the following two sequels have a similar amount of politics, or do they lean more towards action?
Ughh. Elend. Love that boy
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MY WHOLE LIFE YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
SAZED THO I LOVED HIM
I love your enthusiasm for this book...LOL I have read them all .....great series....:)
How did you not cry?!!! I sobbed through the intensity. ugh and that letter just felt like a second knife to the chest. Maybe it's because I was so shocked, Idk if I'm just clueless, but I had NO IDEA that they were gonna kill Kelsier off. Like I knew he was hiding some suicidal part of the plan, but like I didn't actually think it was going to happen. I kept expecting Vin to save him or or or idk ANYTHING. and I'm mad. I'm so mad. Elend is gonna have to step it up and entertain me more in the coming books. why have I not read this series earlier? idk.
I NEED TO START THIS SERIES SO BADLY. LIKE, SO BADLY.
jack sparrow meets iron man! love it. perfection.
In my mind, I'm imagining Maisie Williams (arya Stark) as Vin and Ralph Fiennes (as his character from Grand budapest hotel) as Kelsier, and it makes the characters so much more cooler!!!! I love this book so much!
YES! I was waiting for this! :D
omg Christine!! I related Kelsier's character to Dumbledore too. I had the same reactions to the things you mentioned as you except I weeped fr an hour after kelsier's death and I predicted that the lord ruler was rashek the moment we saw him as an old guy in that room within a room
Omg, I can't wait till you read the rest of the book!! ITS AMAZING. You should definitely read the next two. Like now. RIGHT NOW. :)
Christine put all of my feelings about this book in one video
I don't know if you've heard of, or read Brandon Sanderson's "The way of Kings". This book is the first book of the stormlight archive series. This book is CRAZY long, but if you liked mistborn, you'll hopefully love this story too. I highly recommend it. Please don't let the size discourage you, I know it may seem intimidating, but once youre hooked you will wish it was longer. TRUST MEEEEEE!!!!!! This story has a misborn feel to it. Hopefully you'll also notice that our main protagonist Kaladin, bears a slight resemblence to Kelsier :) :) :) its definetly one of my favorite books! The second book "word of radience" Is also amazing!!!
Ever read the Wheel of Time? I never, ever would have found or been reading Mistborn if not for the fact that Brandon Sanderson finished the gigantic, epic fantasy series started by Robert Jordan. Seriously, there are 14 books in the series. I just read the whole thing this year and it was fantastic. I could really tell when Sanderson took over writing the series that Mat Cauthon essentially became Kelsier's character. Of course I didn't know that at the time (reading Mistborn, Kelsier seemed like Mat, but Mistborn was first).
I had this in my audible library for months now. Never really could get in to the audio books for some reason. Had a few false starts over several months. One day, when I was between books, I just went for it. No regrets. Imma immediately get ALL of Sanderson's books. Sazed (narrator did him as an oriental type persona) one of my fav characters, Breeze (upper English man) you gotta love him. No words for Kell. Amazing story, rich universe, well developed characters. Can't wait for the next book. Wonder what the 12th metal does!
Got to be the most energetic book review I've ever seen :D
IM SO EXCITED TO READ THIS!
I've been debating on reading this for a long time. You've just convinced me
Just finished the trilogy. It was amazing...I just placed an order for the entire Cosmere books 😂
CHRISTINE. OK. STORY TIME.
Brandon Sanderson wrote this little series called Alcatraz. The first book is Alcatraz Versus The Evil Librarians.
I know. The title immediately makes anyone that I try and convince to read these books laugh.
They were originally written for a middle school-ish age range but THEY'RE SO GOOD. Like- I love these books almost as much as I love Percy Jackson. maybe Harry Potter even. It's written from first person, and Brandon makes the funniest and sarcastic comments throughout the book. It's about Alcatraz Smedry, and told from his point of view. Alcatraz, as the narrator, makes jabs at Brandon and authors. It's a humorous fantasy novel and it would make my LIFE if you read it and made a booktalk about it.
I'm probably biased since I read the books over 4 times, and I'm reading them again, but they are so so so so good. And also really short- 300 pages. Bye,
I HAVE to read this books! You should try with The name of the wind, one of my favorites ever!
I really want to read The Final Empire but I don't think I'll be able to get it and read it before the liveshow *furious sigh* // I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO MARSH (?) IS BUT YOU LOOK SO AWESOME! // Hope your throat's getting better, I miss Loud Christine. *whispers* you're still as awesome as always tho =D
When she started talking about Kelsier I almost started crying .....
eeep i finally read this book!! i just loved Kelsier so muchhhhh
Yes! I agree! Mistborn is really really really good!
definitely will be reading this now! xx
This book was so so so so so good! I loved it so much but it was super hard to talk about EVERYTHING in it because the world is so complex and amazing and this book was so good that after I read the last page I was like breathe you need to breathe but so good
Best review ever!! I love Kelsier, Breeze and Vin
Love the intensity
This booksounds similar to Six Of Crows.
Did you read that as well?? If you did, which would you say is better? I’m going to read Mistborn either way but I’d like your opinion 🙃😁😁😁😁
Love ur videos christine! Xx have u ever read the forbidden games by LJ smith? I read them ages ago but they're sooo good!
And how excited are u for the dark artifices and the last hour (i think that's what its called???)
Ok I have a question .... doesn't contain spoilers btw...but is the font small...medium...or large in the edition Christine has because the uk editions have small font and its stopping me from getting the book....
I LOVE YOU AND GOUR MERCH!!!
You should read more of Brando Sanderson's books CUZ ALL OF THEM ARE AWESOME. (Seriously thoough, he's one of THE most underrated authors EVER.) He's the kinda writer that writes books you'll buy the second you see 'em on a shelf even when you have no idea what the book is about, because you just KNOW that you'll enjoy and love it. Yep, they're that good. :D Trust me when I say you won't be disappointed.
I just finished it and I don´t even know what to say, it was so mind-blowingly amazing and perfect and clever and I could continue that list for hours
I cried so hard when Kelsier died, I didn´t expect that at all!
And I completely agree about Elend, as soon as he mentioned the reading spot and his books I was sold :) The only thing about him that bothered me though was his name, because Elend means misery in German which is my native language so every time I read his name it threw me off, but I still love him :)
In my country the time is 23:00 and i want to sleep. But Christine has a new video so I have to see it. Because. Sleep later.
Love you Christine and your videos!❤💖💞
(Sorry my English is bad)
same! btw im so happy i found another hungarian who watches christine's videos just as obsessively like me! :D
y pinky Imádom a videóit!:D És én is örülök,hogy találtam egy hozzám hasonló magyar lányt!:D (mivel pinky a neved ezért gondolom lány vagy.;))
Ya your English is kinda bad just saying np
Pranjal Chadda Sorry but this is not my first language. Try to speak 2 language . It's not easy. Just sayin'.
Pranjal Chadda rude
I love your makeup...
just stumbled upon this. you are hilarious! good work. personally this was the first cosmere book i read. i though it was phenomenal.
lmfao so funny. but on the point of vins relationship with the crew, they are like all different aspects of good and flawed parenthood. thats why its beautiful imo
Christine, I just finished reading Shadow and Bone and really enjoyed it. You should read it!!!
Good job with your makeup Christine!
THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU MENTIONED THE VAMPIRE DIARIES I DIED (WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABT MARSH MENTIONING MARE)
I wanna watch this, because I'm shopping around for a good new fantasy book, but I can't tell if there are spoilers or not.
Dang! If you liked this first book this much, just wait till you've read the whole thing. Your mind will be BLOWN! (no spoilers here, but it's true. Your brain will explode)
OMG CHRISTINE YOUR MAKEUP IM IN LOVE LOLOLOL
