I’m on Book 3 and Tory is pissing me off
So I’m on The Reckoning, just starting Chapter 23 and I need to rant. At this point I am enjoying Darcy’s and even the Heir’s POV’s way more than Tory’s. She’s seriously getting on my nerves at this point.
In the first two books I loved her “don’t duck with me” and “put up with no shit” attitude, but now it’s getting annoying, especially since I think she’s becoming a damn hypocrite.
Firstly, I hate the way she acts like a bit h to Diego, one of the few people who has been kind to them since they arrived at the academy, I don’t know what’s changed in this book but her attitude towards him is shit. He’s upset that a hat that his abuela made him before she passed away was stolen and she had the audacity to say “well my parents died before they could make me anything”. Like that’s just complete attention grabbing and a smack in the face to Diego and making him feel he shouldn’t be upset over something important to him just because he didn’t have the same situation as she did in his life, and it’s later revealed that his family actually seems like pure assholes AKA his uncle. (I already know they’re nymphs.)
Then she’s screwing Caleb and playing these games with him and had basically forgiven most of the heirs for the awful things they’ve done to her except for Darius, like she wants to hate him so bad. I know he tried to drown her, and I would stay the hell away from him after that, but Max fully participated in that with him and Caleb and Seth watched it happen, so I think she’s being a huge hypocrite and holding Darius as the worst of them all while not really minding the others. And then the whole dagger situation. She says it’s Darius’s fault that she had that near death experience too and I had to stop reading for a second because what the hell are you talking about? He didn’t give you that dagger, you took it from his room. He fully deserved his room getting burned down and all of his shit stollen, but you took that dagger and kept it with you like the damn ring in Lord of the Rings. He didn’t even know you were the one who had it. So that’s fully on you honey, and he saved you from getting consumed by the shadows. Now I’m fully with her on being pissed about him trying to choke her out afterwards, but the near death experience with the dagger was not his fault. I feel like she’s turning into the type that’s going to blame everyone else around her for everything that goes wrong in her life. And I already have a feeling she’s going to be extremely pissed in a hypocritical way when she finds out about Darcy and Lance even though she has no room to be because of her situation with Caleb. I know they’re twins and tell each other everything but Darcy is allowed to have her secrets especially when it’s high risk situation like her and Lance. I’m not the biggest fan of Darius at the moment but I think most of the things he does right now is because of his psycho father not because he really wants to. I know Darius and Tory are endgame, and I feel like I’m going to hate it because it already looks like it’s going be toxic as fuck on both sides.
