Because yeah, she's evil, but when you learn about the abuse she suffered it makes you step back and think... should I hate her this much? Feels a bit like victim blaming to do so, but then I don't think you should sympathise with villains either. A very interesting dilemma to add to the series!Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02068135640413650969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3286833942649943693.post-16992145990285732382017-01-16T13:18:51.746+00:002017-01-16T13:18:51.746+00:00I completely agree with your review! I know there ...I completely agree with your review! I know there were a number of people who called this "unnecessary" and just Meyer's trying to evoke sympathy for a "terrible" character, but I disagree. It answers a lot of questions and creates this rich (and twisted) back story for a character that has so much hate. There has to be a reason for that hate and I am glad Meyer's shared where it came from.Kayla @ The Tome Chronicleshttp://www.tomechronicles.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3286833942649943693.post-10261974969290200102017-01-11T08:52:23.108+00:002017-01-11T08:52:23.108+00:00Thank you, Zoe!

I wish we had more snippets like this, as I'd love to properly get into the heads of all of my favourites - and I also never want this series to end. :PCharlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02068135640413650969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3286833942649943693.post-58186910998426612482017-01-11T03:29:57.739+00:002017-01-11T03:29:57.739+00:00I completely agree 100%.

It really shows Marissa's talent for understanding psychology and diving into her character's heads. Thanks for sharing and, as always, fabulous review! <3Zoe N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08980248647201093593noreply@blogger.com
