The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss
5.0
This is my new favorite book. I'm surprised I hadn't heard of this book sooner. My English teacher recommended it to me, and since his judgement has never failed me, I decided to read it. This book is so highly requested, it took me 4 months to get it from the library. I think I was number sixty-something when I put a hold on it. I should have known how good it would be just from that.
Anyways, when I first started reading it, it took me a while to get into. Once Kvothe starts to tell his story, the book becomes addictive. I probably would have read it quicker if I had more time to spare. Every minute I wasn't reading the book, I was eager to find a moment to dive back into it. While I was desperately trying to get through the book to know what happened at the end, I also didn't want it to end.
This story sucked me in. I found myself feeling what the characters felt. I became nervous, sad, and even genuinely happy when they did. Although this book is almost 700 pages long, I felt like the story wasn't even close to being finished. One book in, I feel like I've only scratched the surface in The Name Of the Wind's universe.
Not only has this become my favorite book of all time, but I will probably re-read it over and over throughout my life. I will also make sure to recommend it to anyone that will listen.
