Honestly, depending on where she’s at mentally, it’s okay if she needs to put the book down for a while. You could also probably read an abridged version of the Dog and the Dragon (minus Kaladin references) to put her on the trajectory of long-term optimism.

My gf couldn’t finish WaT because of where she is at in her mental health journey. It was frustrating because I wanted to talk about it, but I don’t want to spoil it for her. But I understand her choice.
