The pub scene + the post-pub scene. The train wreck continues. While I want to know how this unfolds, it's a decided departure from the previous books. I've begun to dislike Shona, who's actually borderline toxic, which I guess makes sense, since she's tangled up with toxic Owen.
I like Gnorman. He's the one glimmer of sanity. (Irony: Shona was honest with Owen but he's slithering past her being uncomfortable.)

Reading this is like watching a slow-motion train wreck and being unable to stop it. Shona is entranced by Owen, who continues creeping me out. It's unfortunate that his name is Owen because my Owen (in Convergence) is a great guy. Wild Scottish Rose Owen is a walking red flag who lies to himself. His motivation is pretty clear to me, but he's in denial and Shona is clueless. Is this dark romance?

So. Owen. The guy creeps me out. He's a walking red flag. I'm cringing as I read the firepit scene. I'm glad Gnorman is there to maybe bonk Owen with a hedgie if needed. Because Owen seems super manipulative and arrogant. Shona is a strong woman, but she recognizes Owen's out of her realm of experience. Danger, Shona! He's sneaky and agenda-driven. Not a pond you should swim in.
