These guys have some pretty great insight into a lot of this series due to how slow they read. If it wasn’t such a sausage fest I would give it five stars.
Anytime a female main character has sex, they automatically assume that woman is pregnant. Like a woman’s first and foremost purpose is reproduction.
In another example, During one scene with Valen Luca, they complain that Nynaeve is flirting too much with one man - like she was harassing him. In the next breath, they all support Luca harassing Nynaeve for the exact same purpose. He had to “shoot his shot” (Chris) and that was what he should have done.
But they do have some great insight to the series that a lot of people will miss because they are reading faster. They even noticed some stuff I’ve missed and I’ve read this series 27 times. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone that is reading for the first time.
And honestly, the personal stuff at the beginning is not a downside. It’s a nice addition. Regardless of how much of it is true - lookin at you Ian! - it’s both entertaining and adds another layer of depth. You can see where the sausage fest began and how it became the football arena of vienna wieners that it is.
