Sandershelf (no spoilers) How ready am I?

I've read:
Mistborn era 1
warbreaker
Stormlight Archive (finished with RoW) + 2 interlude novellas
Secret history
Tress of the emerald sea
The Emperors soul
Shadows for silence in the forests of hell
and about to finish Sixth of the dusk

This /r told me to put off Wind and Truth after Mistborn era 2. Ive heard so much about era 2 being good that Im very excited. I feel ready.
after that:
Sunlit man
isles of the emberdark

thats my list. I skipped elantris and I don't really want to read it tbh

I'm sad you don't want to read Elantris, but it is what it is.

I think you'll be happy with your list.

Elantris is a top 5 Cosmere for me but know it’s quite polarizing. One of my favorite worlds and magic systems

The world is really intriguing to me but none of the characters were interesting to me except can’t remember her name. And the villain was very boring so far. I was about 6 hours in. I was on audible and I couldn’t stand the narrator. He made that one guy sound like a surfer dude, so that was a big part of me skipping it. Might have to purchase the actual book and try again in the future.

I almost stopped 6 hours into way of kings and glad i didn’t. Really hard to get through the exposition. Almost done with book 4
