First I didn't find anything charming in the fact that he apparently harassed his room mate for years on the assumption that he was evil and only deserved death.
Most importantly I found his thoughts regarding his (ex) girlfriend entirely disturbing: after stating that he wasn't sure they were a good fit together anyway, he spins into a completely toxic behaviour when /she/ seems to want to break up. "She can't reject me", "She can't reject me for /him/", "He can't have her", "Maybe she isn't in her right mind if she rejects me", and last but not least, "I'll kill that guy and this way he won't have her."
There isn't a moment in the book that criticises the character's behaviour in this chapter in any way. What the hell?

To say I was pumped when Rowell wrote this is true, but it didn't feel right to have read it anytime before now. I sat with this copy because I thought I expected something and wasn't sure what, but I should have had faith in Rowell.
She gave me a great Chosen One story that had adventure and magic, but it had great dialogue, which I loved the best! It feels familiar but not, new and yet old, and once I started, I found myself having to pace myself because it was a story worthy of Cather staying up late into the nights to write her fanfics.
I get it now. I get the hype, and I'm off to follow Snow and Baz on their next adventure, hopefully soon.
