    2015 Re-Readalong: Eye of the World and The Great Hunt

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 My problem with Min here is that there is definitely the impression she's being deliberately cruel to someone who's supposed to be her friend. I mean, Egwene walks in on what is more or less a pretty inappropriate scene in her mind. Basically, Rand is...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 Geez, Min is such a bitch to Egwene here. "You dropped him for the Tower, why should you care if I pick him up?" Yes, she is supposed to have absolutely no feelings at all for someone she's known and thought she was going to marry for basically her...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 Yeah, I just don't really like everything that happens in Falme for some reason. That might be part of it. I am on chapter 45 now though, so I'm not as far behind as I thought I was. I find it interesting that Verin lies to Rand by telling him the...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 I am so behind. D: I guess I need to catch up. I actually don't really like the last portion of TGH though, I think that's why I haven't been reading it as much.

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, 49-53; TGH Pro & 1 Well, I figured the black cord was Ba'alzamon's connection to the True Source (since that's what he's probably channeling), so I don't think it could be used for every Darkfriend, since so few get to channel it. But that still doesn't answer why...

    2015 Re-Readalong: Eye of the World and The Great Hunt

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, 49-53; TGH Pro & 1 Yeah I am so confused by that chapter. Why can Rand see the "black cord"? Why can he see his own cord of light? How is he travelling automatically-- is Lews Therin taking over? I just have lots of questions, since it's so different from how we see...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Chapter 42 - Chapter 48 I interpreted it exactly like Meg Sedai interpreted it-- that she was pointing out how it wasn't a good idea to help a single farm and that tough decisions were important.

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Chapter 35 - Chapter 41 Yeah I got a bit ahead, too. It's hard not to now that things are really picking up.

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Chapter 28 - Chapter 34 Man, I was so close to skipping Chapter 30. That's my least favorite chapter to read in the whole book. Poor Hopper :(

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Chapter 21 - Chapter 27 You know, rereading this is reminding me how sorry I felt for poor Cloud. It irks me that the horse was given a name and personified then he is probably eaten by Trollocs.

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Prologue - Chapter 6 This quote amused me: Heh.

    2015 Re-Readalong: Eye of the World and The Great Hunt

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Prologue - Chapter 6 These chapters also make me feel pretty sorry for Nynaeve. From experience, it is incredibly frustrating when people don't take you seriously because of your age, and she clearly doesn't know how to make people respect her without just...

    2015 Re-Readalong: Eye of the World and The Great Hunt

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Prologue - Chapter 6 But she married into the family, so technically she's not one (I assume, because this isn't GoT :lol).

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: EoTW, Prologue - Chapter 6 Yup, someone else who thought of Ringwraiths with the Myrddraal. Actually, I remember the very first time I read this, when I was about 13 or so and had just finished LotR, being super annoyed at all the similarities in the early chapters. The...
