1.) I'm a little pissed at the Dragonmount review for leading me to believe that Mat would go to the ToG in this book, and that we'd find out who killed Asmo. He never said either, but he implied it.
2.) I enjoyed all of Egwene's chapters, but was frustrated with her hypocritical statements in the beginning. Mainly, her ire at Elaida proposing that sisters swear fealty to her, when she herself had already done so with a small sample. I also thought that her earlier chapters were written by RJ, but later found that I could no longer really tell for sure which was BS and which was RJ.
3.) Mat's character felt off to me at times, and to a lesser degree, so did Rand's. I just thought some of Mat's witticisms felt a bit... strained.
4.) I anticipated that we wouldn't see any Elayne, but I wish we'd have seen either more or less of Perrin. It's going to feel a little redundant if we revisit Perrin to witness things we already know will happen (encountering Galad, Morgase revealing her identity), but it will also feel incomplete if we don't. Either way it may seem a little awkward. \
5.) Towers of Midnight can't get here soon enough...

First off. See, Dragonmount has always been the vastly inferior WoT website. It's a disgrace, really. Don't go there. You have no reason to. Here is much, much better.
Secondly, Egwene didn't ask them to swear oaths on the Oath Rod. So there is a vast difference.
Third. Mat and Rand seemed fine to me. Yes, there was a bit of a difference in writing style, but both seemed to me to be exactly who I thought they'd be at this point.
Your fourth point is a blah. I wanted Elayne and more of Perrin, but I feel we got an adequate amount of him.
Fifth point, Amen.
Sixth point, I hate this god damn shit ass new shit of replying to posts differently than wotmania. It is a gigantic pain in the ass.
Your mom. That's right. The cat is out of the bag. Your mom.
My mind isn't always in the gutter, it just has VIP access
