So much has happened. But right now, I feel bad for Xaden. I wish Violet would be less judgmental and insecure. She needs to believe truly this man genuinely loves her and with his whole heart. But her own insecurities are what’s holding her back. I think in her heart, she sees him as so unattainable that she can’t understand why he would love her. Also why she keeps blaming herself for everything.

Part I done. And holy crap what a dang ride it’s been and I’m only halfway through! Some of my preconceived ideas about certain people weren’t 100% true. But jury is still out because I still think certain people still suck. Just did one or two non-terrible things. Doesn’t mean they are fully good in my eyes. Getting to see Xaden and Violet back together again is awesome. I’ll say this. That man is devoted

Just finished Chapter 25 and Nolan’s “project” was just revealed. And WTF!!!!!!!!!!! I just totally lost it! Are you kidding me right now!?!?!

First of all, Tairn is such a badass and I love it! I was just sitting there wondering why hasn’t Tairn put Varrish in his place and then…he did. And it was epic. Now I think this may be more problematic for Violet later but it was nice to see happen nonetheless.

I would say so far this book is really setting up a whole lot of WTF this year. Also, Violet just needs to forgive Xaden already. She doesn’t get to see him much as is and with everything going on at Basgiath, she needs him more not less in her life. Also would like to note NONE of this crap would have happened if Dain had not been the absolute snake that he is and thus my very valid reason for still hating him

Okay so I hate both Dain and his father. Awesome. Gah.

Okay. Violet is kind of annoying me. She’s being a bit unreasonable about Xaden and his need to keep secrets. I mean, that’s something understandable and not sure why she can’t understand that. Sorry, on Xaden’s side in this.
