About Me
I'm currently teaching Spanish at an Episcopalian private school south of Atlanta. I started reading the Wheel of Time in the summer of 2010, and have read everything up to the Towers of Midnight.
Let's think about what could be in this box... ummmm....
My favorite character is Perrin because he's big, burly, bearded, and badass (and so am I! excepting the badass part, probably. depends on whom you ask).
My least favorite character is Cadsuane because she seems to have criticisms for every little thing the other characters do (unless they're directly serving her) and very little in the way of practical solutions. Like the cleansing of Saidin. It was like she dissed it the entire time, with no good reason why he should or shouldn't do it. She just sniffed because it wasn't her idea. Grr...
My favorite book is the Dragon Reborn because the Mat and Perrin arcs are the bomb.com/index.php
My least favorite book is Crossroads of Twilight because a) there's very little Mat and Perrin in it (and Tuon's annoying and the chapters she's featured could literally be summed up into the phrase "Mat and Tuon continued to flirt dangerously, all the while falling for each other more each day.") and b) because it's friggin' 1000 pages of reactions (omg reactions). Le sigh.
I like Sanderson's writing style, but honestly, Knife of Dreams was so action packed that I was hard pressed to really notice the difference when I read the Gathering Storm for the first time.
In conclusion: Dino Pope.
