Title: I gave up half-way through this book
Review: Man, when people say this book starts off slow, they MEAN IT! I see what Donaldson is trying to set up -- unassertive Terisa gradually learns that she has value and self-worth and eventually stands up for herself, and Geraden finally leaves behind his klutzy ways and learns to be a man, and of course they end up a couple, yadda-yadda -- but I've given up on it because it goes so slowly. The imagery is nice, the through-her-eyes perspective is interesting, but I kept wanting to smack this girl upside the head and tell her to stand up for herself already. I even tried flipping forward through it and found no real action to keep me interested.If you're looking for suspense, intrigue, and intense, detailed descriptions, and you don't mind waiting 'til maybe even the end of the book for explanations of what's going on, this might be the book for you. If you're looking for action, adventure, magic, and most importantly, FUN, try something else.
