"You are in love with death, like all your class," Kenji said, a depth of anger in his voice that I had never heard before.
"I have no fear of death," Shigeru replied. "But it is wrong to say I am in love with it. Quite the opposite: I think I've proved how much I love life. But it is better to die than to live with shame, and that is the point I have come to now."

Alright, this has definitely gotten a lot more interesting. I love Shigeru's easy humor about it all as well.

"Rena-chan came over to play just now, yeah?"
"....? ...No she didn't."
C'mon, don't play dumb. I told her where your room is ... and I saw her walking up the stairs."
Huh?
"I thought you guys were talking this whole time so I brought some tea. I passed Rena on my way up."
Rena was here? She didn't come to my room ...
"W-when did Rena get here?"
"Hmm...almost an hour ago, I guess."

I like Kaede's chapters better, and I'm not disliking the story as a whole so much anymore.

Figured I should update since this is where I stopped, about a week ago. Amy hit the nail on the head though; this book reads like a poor translation, and it unfortunately was never written in anything but English.

Hated it. Awful characters making awful decisions and being awful to each other. I don't recommend this, even if you're curious. There are thousands of other books to read instead.

"Well get rid of it," I promised. "As soon as we can."

Yes, because of Mal, once again throw away something that makes you special. Gotta make your man happy. Can't have any of those pesky opinions or thoughts of self-worth and pride.

Um. Is it completely lost on her that she just did what The Darkling did? That she's no better than he is? Oh, but it was to save a guy she loves. That makes it ok, right? The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many ... ? I think that's how that goes ...

Also, if you don't make sure the villain is dead, you deserve him coming after you in the future.

"The people curse my name and pray for you, but you're the one who was ready to abandon them."

Um, it's probably not a good thing that I side with him over Alina ... He does have a point though ...

"I'm sorry it took me so long to see you, Alina. But I see you know."

Only because she's special and beautiful now and you friend-zoned her when she wasn't. I see through you, you tool.

"Promise me, Mal." His mouth set in a grim line, and a muscle twitched in his jaw. I hated doing this to him, but I had to be sure. "Promise me."
"I promise," he said hoarsely.

Does she not realize what she's making him promise? Stop and think what will happen to him if he follows through with his promise. Stop thinking about yourself for ONE MINUTE and realize that actions have consequences. Selfish brat.

He wanted to take away the one thing that had ever really belonged to me, the only power I'd ever had.

Oh, so now you care.

I'd wanted so badly to belong somewhere, anywhere. I'd been so eager to please him, so proud to keep his secret. But I'd never bothered to question what he might really want, what his true motives might be. I'd been too busy imagining myself by his side, the savior of Ravka, most treasured, most desired, like some kind of queen. I'd made it so easy for him.

Are you finally realizing how stupid and selfish you are?

"The clothes, the jewels, even the way you look. He's all over you."

Oh, so Mal's a jealous bitch now too. Fantastic.

I didn't think he was in love with me and I had no idea what I felt for him, but he wanted me, and maybe that was enough.

NO. It's NOT enough. For fuck's sake.

His kiss was harder this time, laced with the anger I could feel lingering inside him. I didn't care. I didn't care that he'd ignored me or that he confused me or about any of Genya's vague warnings. He'd been right about me. He'd been right about everything.

She really doesn't give a shit about herself and she idolizes any man who shows her interest. I have secondhand embarrassment here. Grow some ovaries, girl.

I could feel how much he wanted me—but behind that desire, I could feel something else, something that felt like anger.
I drew back, startled. "You don't want to be doing this."
"This is the only thing I want to be doing," he growled, and I could hear the bitterness and desire tangled up in his voice.
"And you hate that," I said with a sudden flash of comprehension.

She just cockblocked herself.

Don't waste your time, I wanted to tell them. Her heart belongs to a gangly Fabrikator who doesn't like parties.

And is NOT BEAUTIFUL. You forgot that part. Let's keep analyzing why Genya likes this guy, when she's beautiful and he's not. Please, can we talk about it some more, because it shows how much FUCKING TIME YOU WASTE THINKING ABOUT STUPID SHIT.

"I thought it was important that you see yourself in a proper mirror, not that useless sliver of glass on your dressing table," she said. "But mostly I wanted to see the look on that bitch's face when she saw you in the Darkling's color."

Everyone knows all women who disagree with or don't like us are jealous bitches, and you have to make sure you act just as awful as they do. Screw taking the high road.

How was it that Genya had fallen so hard for someone so serious and so quiet and so seemingly oblivious to her gorgeousness? Or was that exactly why she had fallen for David?

I don't get it either. Why would anyone like anyone unless they were beautiful? Ugly people should DIAF.

My heart sank a little. He had been in the palace for an entire day and he hadn't come to see me or called for me.

Girl, we need to have a talk. You are being way too needy. I'm guessing this is why Mal said, "Fuck this shit, I'm out."

We spent the rest of the afternoon trying on dresses and goggling at ourselves in the mirror—two activities I never would have expected to enjoy.

I'm so glad that now that you're pretty you can be as vapid and shallow as the rest of them, doing stupid shit that has no bearing on the plot.

I am disgusted by the reason Alina couldn't use her power. She should be ashamed of herself. This girl is supposed to save her kingdom and she's a selfish, whiny, addled-brained twit and she doesn't deserve a single thing that's been given to her.
