***My Comments Have SPOILERS; Sorry*** Breeze. Like a light wind. The audiobooks are really helpful with the names. The audiobooks are Great, but FAIR WARNING: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE HERE OF AGES IF IT IS THE FIRST TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENCING IT. The acting has a potential to unintentionally spoil parts of the book. Listen to it on your second go. Also - Elend and Zane Venture are the sons of Straffe Venture. Straffe is a great villain and a horrific human being. I can understand why people were put off by Vin; it can be difficult to read through the kind of teen angsty romance we as adults perceive that as being. However, I like to challenge readers to recall that Vin is an emotional and physical abuse survivor who recently lost the first person she ever learned to trust to a scheme he concocted himself without disclosing it to her, to a *deception*; meanwhile she and Elend spent most of the first book lying to each other about who they were or what they wanted. I sometimes wonder what readers (clearly not you, Jesse; you outlined parts of why Vin's mistrust is understandable, and if the comparison I am about to make is out of line let me know) would say if Vin had been born Vincent and had only been allowed to acknowledge that she was female in the first book due to Kelsier's influence and protection. She just found out she was Mistborn, the daughter of a member of the Steel Ministry, that who she had thought she was and what she perceived her place in life was going to be was false. She was just allowed to begin to start to present her own true personality instead of concealing it out of fear and abuse - look at how she was at the beginning of Mistborn, in her crew. If she were transgender would it be so easy to look at her reluctance to trust under these circumstances and describe her as whiny?

Oh sooo much agree on Vin's mistrust. I mean she was abused so it makes total sense she would be mistrustful. And putting that in a relationship context would be so much harder for her to trust someone in that way.
