I FINALLY FINISHED! IT WAS SOOOOO LONG. 650 pages, y'all. A really neat High Fantasy about the infamous Kvothe, the great magician, the man who has a thousand stories about him. 
 Okay! 
 Pros: 
 -REALLY EPIC WORLD 
 -PHENOMENAL MAGIC SYSTEM 
 -SNARKY & SARCASTIC MAIN CHARACTER 
 -MADE ME FEEL THE EMOTIONS 
 Cons: 
 -It did nOt nEeD TO BE THIS LONG. 
 -Kinda RAMBLY 
 -SRSLY PLZ COULD YOU TAKE OUT LIKE 50 PAGES? 
 -Uhhh the story took aBOUT 75 pages to shift from "moderately interesting" to "really good" 
 Definitely recommend the audiobook. Great if you have to spend about 25 hours painting three rooms in your house and you need to keep from going insane. Lol. 
 GOODNIGHT 
 Oh wait. Spoilery stuff if you interested. (view spoiler)[I loved how music played into the story. His descriptions of the songs and the feelings of performing were so great. ALSO, I really liked Kvothe and Denna and the other characters. Definitely felt like it had a slow start. Uhh... I also wasn't super satisfied with the ending. Like, I know it's a SERIES, but I wanted a better/different ending to THIS story lol. The part with the tree-eating dragon was really cool, but not quite "climax of the story" material.
