And the 'mystery' surrounding her was already getting tiresome halfway through the book, so I really hope there isn't too much of the what's-Denna's-story in the next one. Just tell us and move on.

when reading, I always had the feeling "this is going nowhere!" I don't understand why Kvothe thought Denna was that lovely. She was... how to put it... well I guess you got the right word, Afa. And yeah in the second book their relationship continued to go nowhere, Denna still tried to find a rich man she could take advantage of, while Kvothe was still chasing after her.
