it was amazing
bookshelves: fantasy

These books are giving me happy-place feelings LotR(-movie)-style. Serious question though: How is Mat Sanderson’s favorite character? I’m hoping he will become more likeable - so far he only succeeded at annoying me. (He is like a grumpy Merry Brandybuck, touching stuff he shouldn’t.) My favorite characters as of book 2 are the mostly impenetrable stone fortress that is Lan, the more and more confident Rand (even if his lusting after/blind trust of that presumably evil bitch Selene was grating), and headstrong Nynaeve. On to book 3!

MK Mat is my favorite character too, and he definitely wasn’t at book 2


Kyle B I’m on book 6 and I love Matt� I definitely agree that early in the series he isn’t as likeable. Book four is when his character gets a lot more time and depth.

I was hoping it would be like that. I'm relieved!

Thank you, Kyle! Good to know I'm not an outlier and that I can expect to like him in book 4. Hope you're enjoying the series!

Thank you, Fran! I liked the TV show before I started reading the books but now I'm not so sure anymore. 😂 I mean we are all used to books being better than the movie/TV show (with exceptions of course) but the vibe is just so different...

I hardly ever like a TV series if I've read the book 😂That's probably why I liked this-I've not read them!

That would explain it 😂. I've only rewatched two episodes since reading the first two books and I like it a lot less now.
