The Wheel of Time is obviously a great series that many of us enjoyed reading over the years, but there were elements to the storyline that left me feeling disinterested at certain points.

What were some of the particular plot lines or story arcs that you really disliked or wish would've been out of the story all together? I don't mean characters, or RJ's writing style, etc. Specifically, what parts of the story itself.
I just think the character stuff could have taken place while something more interesting was going on.

The internecine warfare in the White Tower should have taken up about one fifth the size it did. *NM*

It felt like such little payoff for staying devoted to such a terrible storyline

The real annoyance with the WT stuff. Is not knowing if it never meant much, or just died with RJ.

There is no way I recommended a sci-fi book to someone, other than Lem's Solaris.

Yeah, but Rand being whiny did give us the best scene in the series, IMHO.

Most plotlines involving Egwene after book three or so. And yeah, much of Perrin's storyline.

But... Her #1 goal since the very first page she is on is to NOT be "a innkeeper's daughter".

That's true, but she WAS an innkeepers daughter.

Which simply made her all the more reckless in attempting to NOT be until she wasn't. *NM*

I actively liked her until probably around PATH OF DAGGERS. Then I was just vaguely indifferent.

Took forever to think of full on "plot" I'd go so far as to DISLIKE. Then it hit me. "Pink ribbons".
