I generally like Linden but many times I have wanted to shake her or smack her or just plain punch her in the nose.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

I'll have to say that I've wanted to smack TC FAR more than Linden. In the first chronicles, I wanted to grab the ring from him, kick him in the nuts, and get down to business. Ravers? Illearth Stone? Bring 'em on!! I would have tortured the Raver that killed the Giants (names have apparently fled my mind temporarily) for hours and hours. And Foul? Hmph.

Of course, later I learned that might have been disastrous, but still...

Like Jenn said, there are times when I'm a bit annoyed with her. But overall I agree w/ Burgs - even though I understood why he was the Unbeliever, I hated Covenant WAY more in the first Chronicles. He was really a d*ck to people who didn't deserve it.

Great acronym Wayfriend!

I am hereby a member of ROIFLA.

(That's quite a leap, though, as I'm assuming that I'm an intelligent reader.)

Well, we all know how biased those intelligence tests are. :P

Okay, I don't hate Linden. That requires too much effort. I just have no respect for her. I did, in WGW... I think. I must have. I distinctly remember having some positive feelings for her when she went to town on Covenant's friends in Andelain (or am I not remembering that correctly, either?). But the book ended, and the fuzzy-warm feeling passed. So, no respect for Linden. And since we don't have a Holy Order of People who Refuse to Waste Emotional Energy on Linden Avery (HOPRWEELA???), I'm a THOOLAH gal.

I was thinking exactly the same thing Sea! I also find it interesting that the men who like Linden are leading the vote. I thought for sure it would be the wimmens (as lucimay says)
