Oh, I think I get it! The author wanted the protagonist to start out as a member of the “bad guys” but not know it, hence the twist at the end. That’s why the college is so needlessly cruel. I’m going to guess that in the next book, we’re going to see the griffin people act humanely to contrast against it and the rest of the series will be about dismantling the empire or whatever. I bet there’s even a second twist where we learn that the dragons are even under some sort of mind control or weakened somehow, hence the strange powerset.

So, funny thing about rubber. Mesoamerica has had rubber since 1600 BC. Not trying to defend this book in any way, but having rubber/latex is not quite as anachronistic as one may think to a past/fantasy setting. As for the paper, Mesoamericans used something called amate paper which is essentially bark and not the cellulose fiber stuff we commonly think of as paper. Side note, do we know if the parchment they used in the book was made from hide or cellulose? Cause the term is applied to both kinds (if I remember correctly) and the cellulose one is at least *similar* enough to maybe be a reference to amate. Do I think either of these things influenced this writer? Gods no. But I did think both of these things were interesting tidbits, and the more you know!

"He's massive. I look up and up..." Bro lemme tell u, either the author overestimated how tall 6'4 really is, or mc is tragically short. Two of my sisters ex-boyfriends were 6'5 and 6'6 respectively, and I'm 5'4. The only time I had to crane my neck up to look at them was when I was directly in front of them or beside them. For perspective, the top of my head is about chest level/shoulder level. Which is pretty much how any one foot difference is on a person. Your head ends where their shoulders begin. Standing a couple feet away is still only a minor incline for your neck. And ten feet away? They don't even look that tall. That's just how perspective works. Edit: so dude being apparently 6'4, and homegirl "not even reaching his collar bone" (which kinda sounds like she wasn't even close) would put her under 5'4 for sure. Girl's gotta be like 5 feet tall I swear.

You know what would have been such a great way to have us learn about the other characters? Having Violet have to come up with clever and different ways to defeat them. Like, lets just take away the brother book and give her more agency and knowledge of the place she literally lives in, and have her utilize secret passage ways, unknown cracks and crevices, etc to sneak around and spy on her opponents. That way she can learn what makes them tick and how to psych them out, take them out before the fight, distract them, etc, while we, the audience, also learn about them and gain any type of emotional connection to them. That way we actually see Violet's intelligence and her resourcefulness instead of just being told by the author that she's soooo smart.

He says he will let me do a Lightlark video with him but that I have to change where we film because my set up makes him claustrophobic. So stay tuned!

You two are oddly wholesome and adorable and I full on snorted my drink when your husband said, "the clit, what's that?" Also, in honour of you, I actually used the word clit in my latest love scene. Boy, I hope none of my students ever read that sentence above. This is not the Kate Macdonald you're looking for...

Well, there is Red Eyes Black Dragon. Author probably stole that, too. There's so much stolen stuff in here. 😅
