Surprised by how viscerally Robert Jordan is able to make me feel the complete exhaustion Rand and Mat are facing over and over again on their way to Caemlyn. Seriously he's writing it brilliantly. The reactions from Mat to the dagger in Shadar Logoth poisoning him and Rand from channeling tainted saidin to make lightning. Really felt like I was right there with 'em.

No spoilers obviously but the ending of the last chapter genuinely made me sob in a way I haven't while reading a book for the first time since I read Bridge to Terabithia in like third grade.

Fucking hell.

No spoilers but the most recent reveal at the end of this last chapter was both absolutely shocking and incredibly obvious. Congrats on that achievement Mr Jordan.

But seriously I'm loving this book so far. Want to see more of what Nynaeve is up to though :(
