Obligatory "you should go read Tress of the Emerald Sea" post
Similar story but with badass heroine. Would love to see it get made into video!
I actually really hated the book, which was a big surprise to me, since I love Princess Bride and most of Sanderson. But man, the narrator was way more grating and unfunny to me than Princess Bride's.
Sanderson usually isn't funny for me, which is usually fine, but Tress relied on humor too much imo
Sorry to hear you didn't like it! I rather enjoy Hoid/Wit's perspective but maybe that's because I knew him before I read Tress?
Edit: If you do not care for Sanderson's humor avoid Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians, it relies on it heavily!
I've read all of cosmere, and I don't care for Hoid in general, though there's a lot about his books I do love. But I tried a few of his YA books (the chalk one, and reckoners) and didn't especially care for them.
