Are you loving it? Most people do! I am in the minority here for sure on this one!!

I'm enjoying it so far, but I am only at the point just after he lost his family and the troop.

A couple people in my group are reading it now and loving it....most people did. I don't know what it was for me, other than I thought Kvothe was just an arrogant ass....so I guess with that thought in my head, I just couldn't enjoy anything else...plus I found it repetitive...same phrases over and over which also drove me nuts....plus I had huge expectations....oh well...that's what makes reading interesting. I hope you enjoy it!

I usually detest arrogance and repetitiveness, so I will let you know. It was so highly praised that I am looking forward to it, but now that I read some of the negative reviews I'm not a sure. The idea behind the books definitely has merit.

Well....there are certainly a lot more positive reviews than negative..it almost has a "cult" following!!
