She's going to rip that braid out of her scalp one of these days, mark my words.

I'll admit she has a problem with coming to terms with the fact that the rest of the cast from the Two Rivers are their own people and she can't drag them all back home like she set out to do. But a lot of her anger seems to stem from the fact that her and the lives of those she cares about were all irreversibly wrapped up in the world's problems, and she can't even lay the blame at Moiraine's feet like she thought to at first because she knows that they are what they are no matter what. I think she's actually a really good parallel to Rand, considering how much they both dig their heels at their respective duties. Even in book five, you have Nynaeve subjugating a Forsaken and keeping it on the down low much like Rand did with Asmodean.

I finished book five a day ago and went to see what other people were thinking about it online, and I've seen a lot of people voice their dislike of Nynaeve in this book. I don't know if I'm missing something because I really enjoyed Nynaeve's arc in the Fires of Heaven, and even at her worst I can't really see her as "bratty" or anything like people describe her to be.
