A review by alexiathethief
The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss

1.0

He’s great with descriptions of scenes and for a while the book was good until Kvothe began to attend school. Why did he have to describe a woman’s private parts as the “mouth of hell”? Every woman in this book (and they are very sparse) exist for the benefit of men.

The main character is also very irritating after a while. He’s the Smartest, Strongest, Bravest man. He’s so smart he finished learning in a quarter of the time everyone else did. He’s so brave he took down a dragon no one else could. He’s so “not like the other guys” the love interest only has eyes for him even while she literally dated everyone but him. He’s so brave he stands up against the rich bully all the time.

I would recommend this book to people as a passive aggressive insult to them.
