JiixBooks | 38 comments DID YOU CRY I TEARED UP OMG OMG OMG!
This was just more intensity than i expected from this book O.o America was wonderful Fight girl FIGHT!
Though i cant really blame Maxon b/c did he really have a choice i think his father is kind of the "bad" guy here he seems rather stern with rules and all that stuff

Aspen is okay i guess although i am still on TEAM MAXON ALL THE WAY! And i feel like we are getting more of a feeling of Aspen and America together

Oww on a lighter note wasnt the whole secret library thing and making Halloween canon again just wonderful!
(i mean before everything went downhill...)
And May was just as adorable as ever!!!
(making her see the torture was even worse i think but oh my oh my....)

Unfortunately, I hardly every tear up or cry while reading books, but that whipping scene was absolutely devastating! I knew that Woodwork would be somehow be relevant to the story in a romantic way, but I was NOT expecting there to be a relationship between him and Marlee. AND YES! I cannot believe that May had to sit through that traumatic event! I mean, what is wrong with these people? Children should never have to witness something like that! I wonder if this will change May, or change her perception of the society she's living in? I do like how this event really turned things around, because the end of Chapter 9 made America's choice sound so finalized and considering there is still two hundred pages left of the book, I was kind of like "Huh?"

I agree that it isn't Maxon's fault, but I think he himself could have displayed more regret for what occurred. I felt he was too preoccupied with America's state of mind, and if she still felt for him. But whatever, I can let it slide because I still love the man to death! TEAM MAXON TO THE END, BABY! ;)

I like that we haven't seen any kissy-kissy moments between America and Aspen, and it's been more conversation. However, I still feel we are lacking some real, pure connection between them. I admit, the dance and the way he come to her room to ensure her that he is there for aid, even if it risked looking a bit fishy (but the maids were in a hassle, so obviously they weren't paying much attention) was cute. It is also evident that there's going to be some more growth between them now that America has basically rejected being a princess. I just... I want to feel like there is actual competition between Maxon and Aspen! It's like there is no core scene that is substantiating America's deep affections for him. WE MISSED OUT ON THE LAST TWO YEARS! STOP TELLING AND HOW ABOUT DESCRIBING SOME VIVID REFLECTION THAT WILL MAKE ME FEEL COMPELLED TO WANT ASPEN TO HAVE A HAPPILY EVER AFTER BECAUSE RIGHT NOW, I DON'T REALLY GIVE A CRAP!

And again, America being as uncooperative as ever... Yes, Maxon! He's the one! How could I have ever doubted his feelings for me? He wants all the best things for me. He is my mine, and I am his! YES! Oh, shoot... nevermind. I can't be a princess. Don't feel like trying to make a change to this damn society by taking on a higher position. Aspen is HOME. <3"

... -.-' -.-' -.-' -.-'

BUT SI! The entire library thing was splendid and I hope we get to read along with America about what Gavril had written in his diaries. AND THE HALLOWEEN CELEBRATION WAS WONDERFUL! I was visualizing Maxon as a pirate... mmm, yummy! xD

By the way, do you have a cast in mind? I have a few in mind, haha.

MY FAVORITE DISNEY HERIONE IS JASMINE! Mulan is awesome too. #INDEPEDENT HERIONES FTW!
