Hello readers and writers!

Today, we are finally talking about the highly divisive epic fantasy novel, The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. In the review, I talk about Kvothe, characters, world building, the magic system, prose/writing style, dislikes and whether not you should read it! There will be no spoilers during those sections. At the end of the video, I talk about some of my standout spoiler moments and discuss what I'm planning on reading next!

Overall, I rated this book a 9/10.

It is easily the BEST fantasy book I've ever read, and I highly recommend you give it a shot. It really all comes down to whether or not you like Kvothe as a protagonist. He is the deciding factor of the book for most people.

Here are the links to my Goodreads, Instagram, and a video explaining the magic system 'Sympathy' in more depth.

As always, happy reading and writing!
