Passed some great, wonderful scenes. I’m almost there! Some shocks, some surprises, some heartbreak and a little relief here and there. I get false hopes that things work out for Kaine and Helena. I’m practically crossing my fingers at this point.

I fear I’m becoming attached. Anyway, it’s 1 am and I have to babysit my former professor’s kids in a few hours. This is going to be great! Anyway, I’m obsessed. I’m not ready for the turmoil, I know it’s coming. The ups and downs are literally quite real, and I can feel the sense of dread happening soon.

Part One - confusion, conflict, some dark scenes have happened. In Part Two, things are clinking together like a puzzle. Things are making sense. I'm quite attached, but always on edge because I can tell things are about to go down. Why did I choose a book that has me alert with each page-turn? I just KNOW something is about to happen. I'm not ready.

Ignorance is bliss. I began reading this book without the knowledge that there was a predecessor to this world and its characters. I did not know that it was a fan fiction to Harry Potter, specifically Draco and Hermione. This book is quite dark, but not super disturbing to me despite the trigger warnings. I like how she removed any likeness (for legal purposes) of the fanfic, but now it’s original. We will see.
