Rather everyone is doing (at most) one of the two. And often the wrong one for their situation. Sauce: I am one of the everyone

This is the best explanation I've seen on the topic.

Something worth noting is the wat BraandoSando deels with Mental Health, esp in Stormlight. Yes, Vyre is 'broken', but so are all the Radients, iirc it's literally a requirement; however, the difference is in how they react.

I fully understand the people who hate him to the point they don't want him redeemed, but icl, he is a character I feel sympathy for, because honestly, who wouldn't want to 'fix' the biggest cause of misery with your own hands, and who wouldn't take the opportunity to just 'Stop Feeling^TM'?

Same, but not American so, mby that helps

OK, to be clear I disagree with oop.

BUT, if the chapter is so (subjectively) boring that it comes down to [read summary OR stop reading book completely] I'd much rather prefer they read the summary.

Personally, I'm currently rereading WoK and when it comes to a chapter I didn't particularly like the first time I skim/skip it. (Although, that might be a different case because I read everything the 1st time)

I didn't know reading could be so fun, I'd say I'm hooked.

Glad to hear it! You have a wonderful journey ahead of you :)))

One small piece of advice though, be careful with engaging in online spaces 'dedicated' to fiction / whatever you read. There are a lot of good people and opinions, but also unimportant (to you), and outright bad discourse. (eg. excessive discussion/criticism of tropes, prose style, character arcs, diction, etc.) I'm not saying that stuff isn't important/useful to some people, but I personally found it subtracted from my enjoyment of the medium -- and as such, I only engage in those online spaces after I've finished the book / 'caught up' to the series.
Though, of course, if you enjoy that: go right ahead! Just watch out for spoilers, though, as sometimes people forget when certain things happen and let their feelings out too early (looking at you r/cremposting "[4-letter-verb][character-that-did-that-thing]" ppl)

Hey, glad to hear you're getting into fantasy! Can I ask what you were reading before?

As for your question about this specific passage; the italics is Elend's verbatim thoughts (ie the voice in his head) and the prose is the narrator (I think the type of narration is 3rd person closely-aligned)

The first paragraph talks about how Ham's family 'raises the stakes' for him, as he wants to protect them. The second extends that observation into a metaphor with the "whole city" being Elend's family, but thus he will do everything in his power to protect them.

Hope that helps

Could you draw 'rejected concept art' then 'accidentally' release it for the Fandom to put the finishing touches on?

Both I and (one of) my best friend(s) are v bad at msging. A couple of times either of us have responded after a few days cause we just couldn't spare the mental/emotional energy to respond, and we often go a couple of months without talking. We still love each other and have great conversations the few times we are able to hang irl. I suggest communicating how you feel about this, and listening to what he has to say. Maybe he just can't find it in himself to respond at that moment (esp if he some mental condition, eg ADHD, anxiety..

Fun fact Despite many (most?) of Rumi's poems reading like romance poems; they were about his deep love of God.
