This is such a terrible book. The narration is poor and contrived, the characters are just... there and Kvothe is the best there is. This reads as if someone who has never experienced hardship in their life is trying to write about poverty and loss, and it really, really misses the mark.

Such an amazing character study so far, I am as transfixed by Vanessa's journey as I am disgusted by the teacher's behavior.

I'm not going to lie, this is a struggle to read. I don't remember the last time I disagreed with someone so strongly

Enchanting story so far, I'm really happy the mythology is finally starting to unravel

Slow, but interesting so far

I am surprised by how different the book is from the movie based on it, I didn't expect this many surprises!

Slow, but interesting so far. Different from the movie in ways I didnt expect

an interesting introduction to the history of rhetoric so far

The characters are getting more and more amazing, I'm happy I stuck with this book

Sorcerer to the Crown is slow to start, but now it's getting really good! Really enjoying the new characters

I still can't get over how much of a non-character Hannah is and how "poor" the family must be, what with only having one servant

The book is both lovely and so outdated in many of its ideas. There is nothing wrong in proudly displaying your achievements, contrary to what Marmee keeps saying.

Frankenstein is increasingly being a slog: I usually love character-driven stories, but it feels like the characters here aren't distinctive enough to actually carry the book. I still want to finish it, but I find myself reading it to get closer to the end and not because I look forward to seeing what happens.

The book so far is very different from what I imagined, with Victor coming across a lot nicer and more likable than expected. Still wondering what the of the framing device was.
