Unpopular Opinion: The Wheel of Time Is Overrated | Honest Review & Breakdown

Unpopular Opinion: The Wheel of Time Is Overrated | Honest Review & Breakdown In 2020, during one of the darkest periods of my life, I turned to fantasy fiction in the hopes that it might save me. Like many, I picked up The Wheel of Time—a massive, beloved series with a deep legacy in the fantasy world. But what I found wasn’t comfort. It was disconnection. This video is not just a review of The Wheel of Time books. It’s a personal essay, a breakdown of why I hated the series, and a deeper look at how fandoms have turned stories into identities—and how that can be deeply toxic. I explore the backlash I received, how Daniel Greene fans flooded my comments, and how The Wheel of Time show failed to live up to its own hype. But mostly, this is about what happens when stories fail us—and how we are allowed to walk away from them. Whether you love The Wheel of Time, hate it, or have never read it, this is for anyone who’s ever felt alienated by the things they were “supposed” to love.
