Mia asked:

does anyone know how old Dorian is? I’ve just started the book and he’s described as having ‘dark hair greying at the temples’, is he old or does he just happen to have grey hair for some reason?

Pigsthatwheek I am not sure why that is mentioned, I think it had something to do with him being so tired it caused gray hairs? don't quote me on that though! but I imagined him to be around 25 years old :)

Lu Michelini He's definitely a few years older than Zachary, so I wouldn't say 25. Zachary was gone for 2 years, and Kat graduated during that time. Assuming he went to college right after high school and that he and Kat were the same age, he would be around 20, 21. Dorian's hair is gray, but he is still young, Zachary himself says he mistook him as being older because of that, but they're actually closer in age than he though. I'd say he was about 30ish.
