Patrick Rothfuss' "The Name of the Wind"

Aravelle

Sage
I don't like Deanna much. She has flair, but she just feels like the love interest... I love the magic system. I initally found it confusing, but I had never even heard of sympathy magic and was significantly younger. I like Kvothe, despite what others may say about him being a Gary Stu. Some people are very good at things, simply put. He's smart, it's his wit and curiousity that makes him larger than life.

I have mixed feelings on Kvothe and Bast because they're much like my friend's [Plucifer/Andi] characters. She has a trio; a tricky redhead and a black haired, blue eyed guy who is a demon as a part of that trio. I was so upset when I realized it I haven't picked up the sequel because of it. I'm bitter.
