I for one have never disliked Egwene. However she does have the tendency to think she is ALWAYS correct on whatever the issue may be. Whether she is speaking to a king, the Amyrlin, the Dragon Reborn, Aes Sedai, whatever. She is pretty self centered and arrogant.
I have never disliked her though, despite that. I think her time with the Seachan in book 2 really shaped who she became through the rest of the series. That constant reminder in the back of the head that she can be used as nothing but a pet / tool for someone else had to really throw off her entire psyche. Which of course made me enjoy that part of book 12 even moreso. I probably re-read that section 10-15x just because it was so dramatic and well written.
I especially do not agree though with what Egwene is doing at this point in time in the storyline. In regards to assisting the Dragon Reborn in his trials. Or should I say, her unwillingness to assist.

What is the deal with the Egwene-hate?
