Halfway through and Rand is just that guy

I’ve already been told twice to go read snow crash by Neal Stephenson in this book

Logen Ninefingers reference spotted lol

Perrin: “being at odds with your father in law is almost as bad at being at odds with your mother in law”. Not in this universe man

Loial mentioned!

Dream world sections 😴, Perrin and Mat sections = locked in

Someone give this author a TV deal I’m begging

Almost halfway through and all I feel like I’ve read is the women pining over men and despising them at the same time. The presence of the Forsaken being real tangible characters is a good addition. The three boys have plenty to do but not much has really changed

Lots of present influences here. Greek mythos, Egyptian lands and others I’m likely not aware of

Really cool start to this darker fantasy

I was vibing until they went back to the home village and everything has just stopped

Pacing is much better off from the start. Hoping this stays consistent.

This story is beautiful with amazing prose. Keema and Jun are so charming with their flaws. I am definitely missing the larger theater metaphor going on here though

This is a very fun read but I am lowkey lost on who the narrator is.

Braids have been tugged. Each one of the boys is better at talking to girls than the other. Nynaeve cannot control her anger for about 400 pages now.

Rand becoming a legend is fun. Mat is the best POV so far. The magic when the characters actually embrace it is fun. But this is the third book of them running away from all magic or their abilities because?

I hope this Selene arc is in this book only. They way her and Rand are written is annoying me to no end. Everything else is great though.

No detail is spared in this book

Who doesn’t love a traditional quest

Much better than the last book!

GumGum :(. Loving this series, everything feels so natural yet random.

Yeah this is going to become a favorite series. I have needed this easy reading change of pace from some of the complex fantasy this year

Why is this book kinda wholesome. I love the tone.

LETS GO

Alright I’m sold on the hype.

This book just reads so smoothly. But if I had a nickel for every character Islington likes to give a hidden identity…. I’d have a lot of nickels

I love the parallels of Thomin and Sciona

I like the vibes, I like the characters even though I feel like I don’t know much about them. But I really don’t know where this is going

The backstory reveals are insane, why would you go to hell for this man

I’m convinced people who said this reads like a textbook haven’t read a textbook in a while. Very smooth read and funny premise

The plot is all over the place but I really like the main cast so it’s been a confusing ride but still good
