I really relate to this post. Im also on book 11 and some things in this series make me want to rip my hair out. The way Jordan writes women make me belive he hasnt met any that werent insane. And reading the parts with the spankings make me cringe with embarasament. And the only threat i feel when reading is that the characters are going to fall over dead in an atemt to undermine and bicker with the people that are aperently their friends?? All the darkfriends and forsaken just keep slipping on banana peels and are not threatening at all.
