Bonnie’s comments from the WordNerds group.

yay! my thoughts are a bit stale on this but still fairly strong. They are mostly:

Deanna: Hate
Elodin: Love
Young Kvothe: Badass
Old Kvothe: Sad :(

Woah you must've liked this book to finish it so fast!! Should we book group discussion it soon?

Yessssss. I'm really hoping Elodin one day gets his own series. He only gets more awesome as time goes on.

You've met Elodin already, right? ISN'T HE THE BEST THING EVER?!!?

In book 2 he becomes a massive Mary Sue with an almost magical penis.

But I love this series anyway.

I really liked the structure of this books. It was a nice twist on the "innocent normal [farm] boy becomes a famous hero" cliche of fantasy novels.

First because it starts off from when that boy is ALREADY a legend.

And second because instead of becoming a hero, somehow Kvothe fucked everything up.

I think I thought we weren't doing another book for this month and then were just reading A Monster Calls for our next book in February. But I'm cool with discussing Name of the Wind in January! I've already read it, so that's easy for me...

Oh I thought it would be on our currently reading list

Didn't we agree on A Monster Callsfor next month?
