Perpetual Booknerds discussion

Okay so a lot has changed for me. I guess I understand that she never intended to be queen. She was just enjoying the short fling and the frivolous fun and presents of being his current fling not taking it seriously then when it becomes serious being caught up and unsure what to do. All the expectations from your family (who are dicks btw) and friends (more on that later) and knowing that if you decline then it could impact the country as well as bring down the wrath of a wounded king. That's a lot to risk for a slight fascination then as feelings grow to see how deep in a whole you are. Especially with the king already selling off your kids without talking to you like wtf. I get that's how stuff is done but like all she asked for was to be notified so she could be prepared and his comment about them not being their kids but his like she's just a host womb.... Yeah he lost any sympathy from me there. Plus he's been acting stranger and stranger as the story progressss and I wonder if it's simply that she sees more of him or if he's just become a drunk (how it seems). Plus he's seen how she is trying to help bring peace and is good at it so that he won't even consider including her is crazy.

Now for the friend OMG I knew something was up. When she admitted she got her into this and was all pissed at her for keeping his attention sorry you threw her into his arms that's your bad home girl. And she was trying to let it fade away but you wouldn't let her so this whole mess is her fault and she doesn't get to be pissy that she won't have a chance at queen but still huge steps up. I'm not really a fan of her anymore. Hollins has been great to her and she's acting like a brat
