If you can fudge dates and act like Sydney's been pregnant since her rescue from reeducation THEN WHY CAN'T YOU DEAL WITH PEOPLE ASKING ABOUT DECLAN'S DAD???????????

Wow the writing really fell apart in the last act. Near constant grammar errors and now Sydney is "still holding Declan" not even a paragraph after Adrian took him from her.

It's common courtesy to warn the adoptive parents that they're adoptive parents BEFORE abandoning the child at their doorstep. I still think this subplot is plain dumb. Sydney and Adrian are smart enough to convince a kid is their biological son but no one is smart enough to convince others that Olive just hooked up with another guy?

I'm a sucker for blackmail and happy endings *sob*

I am over the moon that Sydney figured out they were talking about tattoos. I've had enough logic farts for this apparently brilliant character the last two books.

I do like how they're reinforcing Sydney's re-eduction PTSD. She wouldn't seem so real if she'd gotten out of that mentally unscathed.

Sydney, Sydney, Sydney, always causing trouble and I love it.

WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO HIDE IT THERE'S NO WAY TO TELL IT'S A MIRACLE BABY!!!!!!!!! ADRIAN IS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS AN IDEA AND IT'S BECAUSE HE CAN SEE AURAS NO ONE ELSE WOULD KNOW, WHAT IS HAPPENING EVERYONE HAS LOST THEIR MIND AND SO HAVE I-

I'm not getting over this. They're milking this POINTLESS tragedy that could have been EASILY avoided with BASIC common sense. Olive is so stupid. So unforgivably stupid. I don't even feel sorry for her, I'm just INFURIATED at how unnecessarily stupid she is.

I'm stone-cold livid this is such a pointlessly stupid tragedy NO ONE WOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS A MIRACLE BABY UNLESS YOU TOLD THEM! YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO RUN! YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DIE!! THIS IS SO STUPID I WANT TO RATE THE BOOK 2 STARS FOR THIS TRAVESTY OF LOGIC ALONE!!!

I was so on board with the drama but now I just want to scream. Olive's excuse for running away - for not even telling Nina, and for running off into the woods, are so stupid I can't even fathom. She didn't even have to tell anyone it was Neil's baby wtf. She died for nothing it's so stupid I just want to laugh and scream.

WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE HER WITH THAT CREEP?!?!?

Okay things have REALLY picked up but I was not expecting this bizarre turn of events - cue blinking white guy meme.

Okay, yes, things are getting interesting again!

Son of a... I get where Sidney is coming from but nothing good can come from backing out of a deal with a girl who keeps everyone from realizing they're out of court and is steadily losing her own mind.

Maybe I'm just an obnoxious shipper but this series really is best when Adrian and Sydney are together.

Sydney finally dropped the Idiot Ball and realized the obvious: the evil witch with a bone to pick with her, whose body wasn't found in the burnt bungalow, is the magic user who is now toying with her.

*slow clap*

*skims through the scavenger hunt bits because I don't care*

Yes, yes, please give me all the Sage family updates. Please let everyone but Father Sage be doing well.

I really hate Nina. She's mostly just pointless drama and watching her act so pathetically over Adrian's rejection is just uncomfortable.

Between the game trials from Alica (who I'm assuming is behind this) and this dumb dream adventure with Nina, Mead somehow manages to make her plot feel like filler. Or is this actually just filler?

Why is no one considering Alicia is behind the box? What other magic user would be interested in toying with Sydney???

No, no, no, please don't bring Nina back! Her sub-plot has nothing to offer outside of the research. Giving her more than that in Silver Shadows was a mistake. Don't do this to me, I don't care about her petty ass feeling rejected.

Sorry, no, Sydney turning into Mr. Bojangles is best.

Mr. Bojangles was a childhood cat of mine, best part of the book thus far.

I can't decide if this cover is worse than the Silver Shadows cover. That was ugly, and looked completely amateur, but this is just awkward. Why does the model girl have such a glazed look?

Adrian told Rose that she'd left a lot of victims in the wake of her happy ending. It feels a little ironic considering he's putting the entire vampire world on shaky ground with the Alchemists for Sydney.

Any problems I had with this book mean nothing in face of the wedding. I'm a sap, and this is all I wanted.
