The Eye of the World

this def scratched my classic fantasy itch, but most of the time moved very slowly. i disliked nynaeve and mat (especially mat, ugh - that whole dagger business warranted many an eye roll from me), and didn't really understand the negativity towards aes sedai. it's probably one of those things that will be fleshed out as the series goes on haha. i just found that there were too many instances where characters would go “there is absolutely NO WAY terrible x things could happen!” and then a few pages later, a terrible x thing would happen. got old pretty quickly lol.

i likely will continue reading because i've heard it gets better, with a needed a break between books.
