Not for me
3 stars
I read a lot and quite obsessively if I like the book (sometimes even if I do not like the book). With "The Name of th Wind" I am having a hard time. It is written nicely, but I can not shake the feeling, that it is all to show what a really powerful, clever, sexy, exceptional, enigmatic, experienced (and at such a young age!) and whatever else character Kvothe is. I have the feeling of the author poured all his desires and ideals in this character and it really puts me off. I think I will not continue reading (page 123 of 714).
