Lee’s backstory is so devastational. Also, I’m so hyped at the idea that Charles might come back into the mix because I really cannot deal with this story just being about Adam. I find him so frustrating to be in his POV. But I do like the twins. I was pretty surprised to see that they were swapped from the way I thought.

I still find Adam Trask to be hard to pity to be honest. It’s actually perplexing to me.

“Thou mayest” is an interesting theological discussion haha.
To be honest, I find it hard to find Adam Trask remotely sympathetic.

If you told me when I started this book that I’d like and pity Charles more than Adam, I’d have thought you crazy.
But like fr fr, so tragic. To see the bonds of brotherhood broken in such a manner

Cathy Ames is Johan Liebert, I say that with the upmost respect and fear.
