So I'm a 1, except for faces. Does anyone else get this?

If its a face I know, then it's a 2. But if I'm reading or listening to fiction, faces are more like a 4. Everything else appears in vivid detail when described - clothes, surroundings, etc. - I can even conjure tastes and smells, but I really have difficulty holding onto a face in my mind. It's made me appreciate fan art.

I have synesthesia and I use colour and "feel" to remember things. I'm good with phone numbers and dates. I also use mapping a lot, where I see a picture in my head with things placed along in. For example, the year is on a ribbon of varying thickness and colours.

I did think this was how everyone did it. I was 20 before I realised synesthesia was even a thing because it seems so natural to me.

This is the first thing I thought od when I saw this thread. Great show.

Your Dino looks like my Lionel! Such handsome fellas.

Me too. Thought he'd make at least 102. Weirdly shocked that a 76 year old died.

This is me. I could have written every word of this (if not so succinctly). I often wonder how much of my fatigue is due to wearing the mask all the time.

Me heading to the plans I made when I was slightly less fatigued.

We're still looking at it!

Ah, only seem it once.

Well this took a turn.

I haven't finished this one yet, do we'll see.

I'm guessing you mean the first trilogy (apologies if I'm mistaken), as the First Law universe continues for 6 more books after that (plus a collection of short stories). After the Last Argument of Kings, there are 3 "stand alone" novels, which are the strongest, in my opinion, and then a second trilogy, which is excellent.

I believe there are more books planned for that universe, but The Devils is separate. The others I haven't read as they're Young Adult, so they probably have cheerier endings.

Were you to read on, you'd probably find some joy for characters you like, but I think unhappy endings outweigh the happy ones. Of course, I could be mistaken and you've read all 9, because the ending of the last can definitely be described as devastating too!
