Kvothe is so Autistic, it's wonderful.
characters who I think are queer:
Bast
Simmons
Probably Kvothe
The Eolian owners, I thought they were hubbies at first
I want to give Kvothe a hug, this poor man has had such a hard time, his retirement plan didn't even work out the way he hoped.
as Patrick Rothfuss has said, the writing can be a tad juvenile at times but it does work since Kvothe is a child throughout this whole book, of course he'd freak out at being in close proximity with a girl.
I like Denna, I don't have much to say about her but I like her.
