Olivie Blake is Gifted and Talented at writing the most insufferable, pretentious, compelling, asshole-ry characters with realistic flaws and complex humor.
When legacy, self-fulfilling prophecy, inhumane amounts of money, and attachment disorders galore collide, who can you really be at the end of your life? Can you find happiness within the tragic - and self-inflicted - mess?
Gifted & Talented is a great analysis of can X buy happiness? Whether that be money, intelligence, destroying our enemies, or the concept of "daddy's love", at what lengths will we go to achieve it, f*ck the costs.
In all honesty, the Wren siblings and their additional cast of less pretentious, yet still wildly odd characters are probably the most likeable assholes of Olivie Blake's so far. In consistent fashion, Blake's story thrive on chaotically assessing character dynamics within the plot versus the actual plot itself. The story here is less about Daddy™ Dying, and way more about the proverbial child-like question, no matter how old we get, "Did I Make You Proud?"
