this genuinely makes me not want to read the next book. why did she even create the "love triangle"? cal never had a real chance. sophie and him spent like 3 pages talking to each other in all three books. archer sucks - the author wants the bad guy who's gentle and sweet with sophie, not the stable kind guy. This is what teaches girls to go with men who're bad for them, cause they think they can "change him"

so she's killed cal off so sophie can be with archer without hurting cal... great. it really is twilight all over again. at least cal isn't a pedo falling in love with sophie's daughter. but wtf. i hate when author's make up love triangles only for the girl to end up with the worse guy that the author fetishises cause it rly is a self-insert fan fic. Also why make a love triangle when it's obvious from the start?

yess!! finally sophie is back to being useful and not stupid, she does save herself or come up with something clever after moments of stupidity. but i think it was a mistake on the author's part to pace this book the way she has. the last book already suffered the same error and the first one too a bit. cliffhangers for books are not a good literary tool imo. it gets old fast.

wasnt it already revealed in the previous book that the carsnoffs could control demons throughout a bloodline? because sophie found out that that's how alexei got her grandmother to kill her grandfather before the council executed her?? there was also another discrepancy between smth sophie already found out but now treated like new information. i hate when that happens in books. makes the character seem stupid

leaving the grimoire which could save the qorld to talk to archer cause he's had his feelings hurt and is in a bad mood now... sophie pmo so much
