Lidt latterlig bog, men ej hvor var den morsom, Sandiagos plan om lowkey bare at dræbe Napolian var rimelig hardcore og det faktum, at han heller ville dø end at have følelser for en pige. En pige han btw har passet på siden hun var 4 og han var 18, hvilket er lidt disturbing. Det er også fantastisk at læse om hvordan alle bare simper så hårdt for Serafina, men hun vil ikke have nogle andre en Sandiago( som teknisk set var hendes babysitter) Serafina pissede mig lidt af, fordi hun var så barnelig og umoden, men jeg forstår godt at det bare er sådan hendes karekter skal være. Jeg synes at Sandiago er for god til hende, men det synes han åbenbart ikke, fordi et gigantisk del af deres konflikt omhandleder hvor ødelagt han er og at han derfor ikke fortjener hende. FUCK hvor er jeg træt af det plot, sådan jeg gider virkelig ikke at læse mere om hvordan hans barndoms trauma nu gør ham til en forfærdelig person. Jeg forstår det virkelig ikke, sådan han blev slået af sin far og nu er han åbenbart grundlæggende ødelagt??
