these are a few of my unfavorite things - Edit 1

1) Logain - giant and total disaster. Future glory seems to be limited to some kind of mixture of children hugging and small talks with their very happy mothers. I simply can not imagine how both RJ and BS could have ruined Logain's plot within the entire series. AMoL is simply the end of this disaster.
2) Who lives who dies? Thank you Brandon for generously killing Gawyn and Egwene but why have you stopped there? Come on - how could have Lan and Galad survived their wounds? Killing Siuan, Bryne, Tenobia and Davram is not not the same!
3) Taim - certainly the series deserved something more than such an empty description of this guys motives and deeds. Starting from the Chosen meeting in the Prolouge to the Taims bitter end we see nothing that could be compared to his first appearance in Caemlyn couple of books behind
4) Padan Fain - you all know what I am talking about. Horrible disaster - what was he for in the series? To be killed at the very end of the book by Mat in his free time with the left hand and eye closed? Sorry...
5) BS is is not a great stylist or even Cadsuane. Definitely not. I can not recall a single scene in AMoL that would made me laugh or cry.
6) Alivia - certainly packing Rand up for his post-Last-Battle Sabbatical deserved the constant repetition of her future role foreseen by Min's viewing in the previous books... Who would be better fitted for this heroic task than the most powerful female channeler among the good guys?..
7) Moiraine - what was she for? Don't you think that any other relatively powerful female channeler would do more or less the same in the Pit of Doom e.g. virtually nothing apart of being linked with Rand through Callandor? I hope she have at least managed to make some nice embroidery waiting for Rand to finish his chit chat with the Dark One
8 ) Balance of PoVs - was it really necessary to stay with Avienda for such a long time and not visiting Alivia or lets say Thom for a single minute? The same can be said about the other Battle fronts.
9) Seanchan - did they do anything really useful in the LB? How the damane were used including Tuons elite? Why could not they even come close to the Shara's Ayyads?
10) Prophecies and viewings - so many unfulfilled or fulfilled in a very ridiculous way that it has no sense to comment it in detail.
well - RIP AMoL
